The amount of these that are scriptable, that are automateable, is sadly sadly sadly low.

This feels like such a dangerous new cargo cult to me: ooh terminal good, hackers are here! Let's build applications for this! Ok, so... you may be in the console. But unless your program can be easily controlled & ran by other command line processes, unless it has machine-readable output, imo, you've simply imported the bad/ill/damaged/corrupt into a world that historically was usually much better.

Building little isolated insular worlds is what apps do. On the terminal, I expect systems to compose & interoperate well. I have yet to see a TUI toolkit/library that demonstrates any form of commitment to first-principles of the shell world. That was my comment 26 days ago, seeing Bubbletea[1], a leading Go based library. This all feels so icky, so wronghearted to me. It could be done responsibly- yes- but it's not. This feels so wildly to be missing the point of the terminal, the shell: to be a complex, interwoven system, where anything- not just some basic pre-determined rote functionality- is possible.

In theory the excellent one. In practice, the one that negotiates better.
I agree, I came to the comment section to say I think this article takes the wrong approach entirely.

You have to test your market with different products and different price points.

If you make three widgets, offer them for $1x, $5x, and $10x.

If you sell all three you know you are still too cheap. Make your next batch even more expensive until you find a price that people are not willing to pay.

If your products don't sell, you need to either lower all your prices, or improve your marketing.
I don't think that's a good counterargument as there really weren't many companies in the 1500s. The only one I know off the top of my head is VOC.
For the most part, the people that the product is offered to don't insist that the creator do work on demand. A small portion of obnoxious users make a point of insisting that the creator who already gave away their work for free remains under some kind of obligation to do more work.

For the most part, creators giving away their work for free don't insist that the people it's offered to accept it. A small portion of obnoxious creators make a point of insisting that some portion of people who aren't using it are obligated to use their work.

Obnoxious users are effectively discouraging, because not only does the population of users outnumber the population of open source authors by many orders of magnitude, not only also because the population of those who don't have the skills to do it themselves or contribute in a functional way is entirely contained within the 'users' category, but most importantly because each obnoxious user has only the authors of the few open source projects that they're using to be obnoxious to. Open source creators who talk about obnoxious users (usually without naming them) are often effectively criticized within the vast hordes of users.

Obnoxious open source creators are easily ignored, since there are so few of them, and they have millions (give or take an order of magnitude or two) of potential users to harrass. Open source users talk about these open source creators (usually calling them out by name), and those creators become well known as obnoxious cranks to be avoided.
That's all fine and good but this is NOT Stripe support, this is a public forum and you are barking up the wrong tree. You need to go talk to a lawyer.
> The BSDs, afaik, do not,

That isn't just about the lack of guaranteed stability, as far as I understand it is considered a security feature. System calls that are not made through the libc may be actively blocked. So an attacker can't just use an exploit to inject a system call into a process, the call has to pass through the libc wrapper and in combination with ASLR that wont be trivial.
On the flip side, though, I could easily see a government spend very little money (say, a couple hundred thousand dollars) to disrupt the campaigns of several tens of potential US Representatives. Given how things work in the House, a state actor could nudge things in the direction they want by disrupting a fairly small percentage of elections.

Presidential election interference would seem to cost a lot more than that, and be a bit more difficult to hide.
> I just don’t associate “travel“ and “vacation“ with going to see a regular season game of any sport as the main objective.

Did it really say "vacation"? I think they meant "travel" as in going to another city (say, in a chartered bus packed full of fans, and which goes back home afterwards) to see your team's away game; at least that kind of travel is what brings most of the out-of-town spectators -- who are what's under discussion here, right? -- to most of the big inter-city sports events I know of.

For that kind of "travel", going to see a regular game of some sport is the main objective.
Yeah... I have watched so many corporate video addresses which just drone on and on and on, often with minimal production qualities too, like a webcam and questionable microphone skills.

These things would not have been filmed at all in the past, or they would have been much shorter. There would be a film crew. Someone doing the microphone setup and telling the subject to enunciate etc.

And us corporates would have watched it in the cafeteria before lunch on the 16mm projector.

The low barrier to entry today is wonderful, but it also means a lot of stuff made is just fluffy and not very necessary at all. I guess it's also easier to skip most of it, so there's that.
I'm willing to bet $100 that it will not end up with criminal charges. We'd need to set some sort of time-limit, if you're prepared to take the bet. How about six months?

The Dutch public prosecution doesn't prosecute when responsible disclosure guidelines were followed. For the computer fraud part obviously; card fraud would be investigated (and there's no helping that this person will be a suspect, but without evidence or motive that should not be a big deal). That's not "this person would simply be serving time". Quite the opposite.

Can't speak for other European countries, I'm not familiar with their practices, but I haven't heard in recent years that anyone got prosecuted for responsible disclosure. A few months back a company started a civil case: that was unusual enough that it made the news (and it was dropped). About a year or so ago, someone was convinced while claiming to be white hat, but they emailed the company something like "pay me and I'll tell you what the problem is. Wouldn't want reputation damage now would we?" Again, unusual enough that it makes the news, and in neither case was a legit white hat "serving time".
You need to wake up earlier anyways.
Apologies. I couldn’t remember the wording. I did read the report but it was last June.
With that said, I have watched more recent interviews with Lue Elizondo where he states that the UAPs being shown are not the result of SAPs, and that he would know as he had access to the SAPs since it was his job to investigate the occurrences.

His interview with Terry Virts, former astronaut, was pretty eye opening. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YSrVhCS-rc

Ease of use. Some people like the conveniences in Desktop and the stuff you described has to be set up and maintained. Lots of people out there just need to start writing application code and get it running in the dev environment they've been given. And employers will happily pay for licenses.
You have a lot of trust in your employer.

I like the low-power aspect of TUIs, but the problem I have with using them over GUI software is there is no launcher or start menu functionality for TUI (re)discovery. I'll often find a cool TUI posted here, install it "for later" and then proceed to forget I ever installed it. When "for later" finally comes around, I have to guess the name using tab completion or open my browser, search my history and hope it's there.

Is there such a thing as a TUI launcher out there? Something that allows fuzzy search of program names, tags and a short description (using something akin to .desktop files for the application metadata). Then, when I suddenly need a program for a certain task, I don't have to hope I memorized the correct command. I just open my TUI launcher, type something related to my task and get a list of some TUIs that could help.
It's amazing how many imbeciles on hacker news actually believe that we actually saw UFOs. There is simply no evidence for them. (The sheer idea of a "saucer" for a UFO is straight out of fiction even, it's also conveniently exactly the same shape as a smudge on literally anything. A smeared spec of mud becomes a UFO saucer.)
Employment law attorneys work on contingency, so no expense to you. You start on the wrongful termination suit, get evidence, and then go after the other company based on what you discover from your previous employer.
Probably not. Bugs like these happen all the time at big financial firms.
>I contend that the most important goal of a programming language is that the author, the compiler and any subsequent maintenance programmers all agree what has been expressed. To the extent that your language fails in this (and I argue C++ fails badly and almost constantly) it is a bad programming language.

I'd disagree, but only slightly. I think the most important aspect of any programming language is the ecosystem. By that I mean ready access to high quality training material for novices, large community of developers willing to help and mentor, and a healthy ecosystem of tooling, libraries and other infrastructure. I think with a lot that has changed in C++, the language, the 'high quality training material for novices' hasn't kept up. I don't think the language is that appealing to novice programmers anymore. I also don't think its a 'bad' language, but I may agree that its past its prime.
The point of things like sixel is to efficiently support interfaces where text is mixed with a little bit of graphics, like in many old-style apps of the 1980s and 1990s - they work very well for that. Replicating a full-featured GUI though is kinda outside their scope; you could make it work but it's not really the point.

Lots of commercial buildings are passed down from generations. You don't know how to think like them. They have the building its been generating money and they have lots of money so they don't care. They want toy X that costs $XXXX per month if the tenant leaves they don't get the toy and they lose the rent they don't need to live anyway. If the tenant stays they get the toy. Otherwise they don't care cause they are good financially. You would be amazed how man "business" decisions are made based on the basis of if it buys the owner the toy they want.

Toy is just a euphemism. It could be a service, it could be just showing up their friend jimmy that they made more money this year. IT could be to win a bet. IT could be the tenant scratched their Bently. It could be that somebody they don't like frequents the establishment.
It seems like that a good alternative would be to anonymously contact the other company via email and just leave it at that.

I wouldn’t involve my employer ever.

I’m confused by his employer’s response, he told them everything, they knew, then the other company said something else happened?

So they took the other company’s word and fired him?

I’m not surprised that could happen but a little they would just believe the other company who they already know don’t know what they’re doing.

The story ends abruptly and … seems missing things.
Total foot in mouth, here... hope you are having a good day, otherwise!
The aforementioned weapons systems only exist in labs if that. Hypersonics are expensive and Russia is poor. Look at their GDP.

And you do realize that satellites don't "lock" onto anything. They orbit around the earth. Geosynchronous orbits aren't used by RORSATs. Spyplanes? What spy planes? Russian maritime surveillance aircraft have limited range, (as do the PLANs) and can't see an infinite distance. Google the earth's curvature and you'll be able to find out how radar is limited.

Russia's military is a Potemkin village. Has been for decades if not longer. The only thing they have that's a threat is their nuclear weapons, and I'm even starting to wonder how reliable those are.

You keep talking about how dangerous Poseidon is. But Status-6 hasn't even been deployed, and probably never will. Why not talk about how dangerous Tsar Bomba is? And it's estimated speed is closer to 60mph.

I grew up when the Soviets were all 10 feet tall, with super T-80 tanks, with SS-20 missiles, nuclear powered cruisers and all sorts of scary stuff. Most of it turned out to be junk or too expensive for the USSR to afford. Same with Russia.
you mean destroy evidence to hinder the prosecution?
OP - the people involved only want to cover their arses, and they're all using you to do it. This is unjust, but unfortunately it's also normal. Time to stop talking and focus 100% on avoiding conviction by working carefully with your lawyer.

I'm sorry but this argument is absurd. Victimizing a population will never make them join your side and especially not when you openly make it clear that you are targeting them. If you followed the internal situation in russia, you'd see that the early opposition to the war vanished after sanctions precisely aimed at civilians started piling up. That's also the difference between actual international sanctions and this type of "activism"; while nation states have the means and the stated objective of specifically hurting the state apparatus and the government of another nation , github repo maintainers literally can only hurt and target normal russian people. Official sanctions will hurt the population too but they at least also target those in power, and those responsible for the war.

Now, obviously, you can say that the russians are themselves the aggressors and should blame their leaders which is totally true. But that doesn't matter because they will absolutely not start supporting the side that is actively trying to punish/victimize them. It's beyond counterproductive and it makes the internal situation much much easier for putin to manage.

By the way, it's scary how how many people are starting to unironically use the same type of argument that bin laden used to attack the US. If you read his letters, he repeatedly said that American civilians were not blameless and complicit to what America was doing to Muslims because they could've changed their government . Worse, they were instead totally supportive of their state's foreign policy! That made them "fair game" as you said. Now if you don't see how dangerous that line of reasoning can be...
The micro package ecosystem is also self-reinforcing: some micro packages were created by the same developers who have spun ownership of these things into more lucrative positions.

I've tried to get rid of micro packages in the dependency tree of popular libraries, but because it's a turf war, PRs get closed, and the problem continues.
In London, in 2002, there were big protests against the imminent war in Iraq. According to Wikipedia, "an anti-war rally in London drew a crowd of at least 150,000". The UK is, nominally at least, a democracy. It's certainly a place where protesters are at much less risk than protesters in Russia. But after the protests we still invaded Iraq.

I support Ukraine 100%. I'm glad the UK and EU and US are sending weapons and aid. I'm glad that some Russians are vocally against the war. But honestly I don't know what people expect the Russian protests to accomplish. I don't know how big would be "too big to ignore" - it doesn't seem possible.
Atheists have religious beliefs too, they just believe in different things. Atheists are no better than any other humans. There is nothing special about an atheist. They are just as susceptible as any other human. I agree with your post other than this portion.
No, they're talking past each other.

dragonwriter seems to have meant "factual" in the sense of "concerned with questions of fact", "is" rather than "ought", and was not intending to claim (at least in that statement) that the answers MMT provides are correct.

gray-area seems to have interpreted "factual" as "accurate" or "truthful", and was objecting that defining a theory as "concerned with things which are actually fr-reals true" is cheating.

To be fair to gray-area, "true" is probably much more common a use of "factual". On the other hand, the broader context was that dragonwriter raised the point in objecting to argument about what MMT purportedly says we "should" do.
I've thought about this a lot. There are really only a few names that come to mind that I would call world class geniuses, but generally Jim Simons of Renaissance [0] tops the list for me.

Personally I'm inclined to think that an IDL is the Right Way to specify an interface. OTOH, that has been tried, many times (ntauthority describes one series of attempts by MS but there have been others). Every one has succumbed to secondary complexity and/or simple lack of adoption. One common issue I've seen has been that the definitions end up feeling pretty non-idiomatic for most languages because they only support a minimal common subset of features. Would exceptions be more idiomatic? Too bad. How about union types? Too bad. What about ownership and memory lifetimes? Oops, alien again. In the end it's no easier to work with than the C definitions, plus generated code often creates problems with build systems and IDEs, so people just go with what already 99% works and deal with its warts as best they can.
You do understand you are talking about real people? Young girls, parents of toddlers, grandmas? Why do you think _you_ have the right to tell them to go face possible death and torture?

Nope, but the military gets a pass in most years as at least being competent. Most Americans believe that most government agencies are both incompetent and profligate.
Something about the article was weird. I didn't grok that it was a book review until after I finished reading it, but I'm not sure exactly why that was.
> you can store game state on the chain

At great expense, yes.

Back in 2017, it cost approximately $76,000 per gigabyte to store data directly on Ethereum: https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/a/896/17413 Now it's multiples of that (i.e. millions of USD per gigabyte).

Of course, that's fine, because Ethereum is not meant to be a data-store, that's where IPFS and FileCoin come in (with their own "proof-of-storage" scheme to sister Bitcoin's world-destroying Proof-of-Work). IPFS should cost less than 1USD per gigabyte while reads are "free" - though I'm unsure how well this will scale over-time. Also, AFAIK, IPFS isn't immutable/append-only storage.
How does catching crash bugs lead to more logic bugs? In practice I've never seen this.

In any case we're talking about security here where many crash bugs can in fact be catastrophic security vulnerabilities. If it crashes there's a distinct possibility that the bug is exploitable.
The recency bias is amazing.

No, if interest rates go up, buyers can afford less, housing prices go down.

Oh and I forgot to address your ridiculous comment about winning every engagement in the Ukraine. Tell that to the 7K dead Russians. How about the 400+ destroyed MBTs, and 4K IFVs? If you think that Russia is winning this conflict currently, you've been listening to Tucker Carlson too much. Russia lost this war on D Day, when they failed to establish an air bridge at Hostomel when the VDV got smoked.
A muon kind of makes sense. It has the same spin and charge as an electron. Kind of mind blowing to think a particle that isn't even a lepton kind of works. I only have a hazy recollection of some engineering level physics but I wouldn't have guessed that.
It sucks but I can totally see the employers and competitors viewpoints. OP not only cracked open the app but made requests to their server. OP is not involved with the infosec at their employer and has no business cracking open their competitors app. The blowback from this could have been huge for the employer.

That's still not anywhere near the same though, a tutor is able to figure out what the student is missing through observation and also teach in a way that the student will learn fastest. Whereas any internet resource relies on the student being able to figure out what they themselves don't know and isn't tailor-made for them.
I assume you're taking a swipe at Team Red, but do remember that the recent TCJA had a provision that removed the ability to deduct state/local (SALT) taxes from your Federal taxes due, above a certain amount. One could consider this very fair: if you argue for higher (Federal) taxes, you should pay what's owed, regardless of what you paid to any local governments, especially since you have much more control over where you live and the taxation policies at the local and state level.

The uproar about this change from Team Blue was palpable; this was clearly a targeted attack on liberal, high-tax areas. The cutoffs for the changes were well above an income level of $150K, which meant it went after the 'rich' that Team Blue always positions as the enemy, but none of that mattered.

Nobody wants more taxation when it actually hits their pocketbook. If there's anything the constituents of the two major political parties can agree on, it's that.
Perhaps Harry Potter or the Lord of the Rings.
