Can't just mill it and eat it as you can with wheat. Needs to be post-processed extensively with alkaline water, plus what the threshers and mills turn out for ethanol and feed ain't what you'd want to make tacos in the first place.

Plus, maize is only okay in the diet, low in proteins and nutrients compared to wheat, it really needs some pulses alongside if you want good nutrition, so pulses would need to be planted a bit more or soy processing would have to shift over from feed to tofu alongside. Historical records show pre-Columbian folks in the maize empires (Aztec, Incas) were a bit malnourished compared to their wheat-eating European and meat-hunting North American counterparts. In the modern day, animals (eggs, poultry, dairy, swine, beef) basically post-process a less-than-ideal crop into something real good for the human.

A few egg layers in the back yard, though, works wonders to turn feed corn into something nutritious for a human being.
I haven’t looked into it but from what I’ve read from various sources, not every platform can extract entropy from that process. I took that to mean that the CPUs on which the jitter dance is employed are not entirely “deterministic.” Well of course they are but they must be carrying black box state that affects execution that, so far, is impossible to extract without knowing the full execution trace up to that point.

Can anyone provide a specific explanation for why some of platforms can extract entropy from scheduling jitter and others can’t?
Is this in the US? I've never heard of this before and am curious to learn more. It sounds like something that is nearly unenforceable.
I didn't mean to imply that exactly (since the margins were still pretty high and comp was still incredible by conventional standards), but I'm implying that high-margin software companies could easily offer previously unthinkable comp so they could recruit the best talent possible. I think most HW companies were slow to adjust across-the-board comp to compete. It's not like there was a mass exodus to these SW companies, but I think it was a small factor in this story (and was for nearly every tech company that wasn't operating at absurd $/employee margins).

Somewhere, sometime, the Great Filter lies waiting for us...

It is patient beyond our fathoming
I felt the same way when switching from a company I liked and spent almost 8 years at to someplace totally new, in a brand new discipline that I was really excited about but didn't have much hands on experience in. It was very anxiety-inducing, since the pandemic really unfolded during my 3-month notice period and here I was leaving a stable position for a brand new probation period.

To be honest for me the only thing that solved that clueless feeling was time, and that included overtime. Nobody was forcing me to work extra hours, but I really wanted to prove myself and get up to speed as fast as I could, so I would work late almost every day to become productive asap. Eventually I relaxed more and more, took more and more ownership over various services, developed and released new projects, etc. Before I knew it I had people asking me questions about different services we maintained and different parts of our stack. There were no tricks or strategies that made me feel better other than this type of "brute forcing" it by just powering through. The switch ended up being a good decision, even though I still think fondly of the company I left.

Good luck!

Maybe. I'll need to get my hands on the license terms which I don't seem to be able to find. They are still offering security support for the product FWIW.

On March 15th 2022, Google released Chrome 99, which introduced a new code signing certificate. Because of this change, 1Password 6 for Mac no longer works in Chrome 99 or later.

While your license for 1Password 6 for Mac hasn't expired (and never will), the last major update to that version was in May 2018. It's no longer being actively developed and will only receive critical security updates in the future.

To continue using Chrome with 1Password on your Mac, you'll need to upgrade to a 1Password membership account. With a 1Password membership, you won't have to worry about dealing with licensing and you can easily use 1Password on all your devices. You can use the account to sync your devices automatically - third-party services like Dropbox and iCloud are no longer required. Simply sign into your 1Password membership account and all of your 1Password data is there. You can learn more here.

Sure, and Java went through this phase too, and I'm sure so have plenty of other languages. It's the stage at which a language has reached mass adoption and it is inevitable, but it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with the language.
OK, so I just tried to look up my Prime account number. All I can find, pretty hidden, is an order number, which changes with every prolongation. Legally, I have one contract, that prolongs every year if I do not cancel. This contract has no ID (it is my email address, sort of). So if I enter the Prime order number in the new cancellation form, would I cancel the entire contract or just the running instance?

My parents wouldn't know what to fill in the contract identification field of the cancellation form.

Plenty of room for dark patterns.

(I'm using platinum ingot since that's how I'm assuming you'd buy a lump of platinum metal. If this is not correct, substitute for whatever the thing is you'd actually buy from somebody like Rio Tinto. I'd have used the platinum ore directly, but my understanding is that it generally is produced as a byproduct of other metal refining.)
I did a prime trial and then cancelled it... only to get a bill a bit later for prime. My account showed cancelled, I did not have active prime. I had to call in and the phone help explained that the auto bill option was checked... Nowhere on my side of the UI was an auto bill option shown and in what bizarro logic would auto bill stay active after cancelling?
In California, there's currently a fight between the state government, which wants cities to allow more housing, and local governments, which are opposed to higher density housing because the NIMBYs ("not in my back yard") fight it. The restrictive zoning laws are at the local level, not the state level.

It's because US monetary policy has created an enormous transfer of wealth to the wealthy and out of the general economy. They do this by extending credit at low interest rates with the collective understanding that the value of the dollar will continue to be printed away. The wealthy (like me...) buy stuff on credit now and pay it back later with much cheaper future dollars.

COVID threw a wrench in the scheme temporarily and caused a lot of that money to start trickling down, which is why we're seeing wages rise rapidly and high consumer-level inflation.

By the way, bitcoin fixes this.
When Wikileaks spread information about US war crimes in Iraq it didn’t lead to any uprising in the US at all, protest yes but no uprising. The regime got re-elected.

Instead what did happened was the imprisonments of the journalist Julian Assange.

In the age we live in most citizens, in any country, are powerless, if you peacefully speak up against your own regime you will be doxxed, silenced, arrested, your bank accounts frozen and even be classified as a terrorist. This have been the case in authoritarian countries but now also is common in so called democratic countries too.

Thinking that you create massive change in another country by putting sanctions on that citizenry is naive, not only will they be punished for the sanctions itself but also when speaking up.
After watching all the issues my friend had with gaming laptops, I'm sure I won't buy one. He also decided to not do so again, as he used it to work as a programmer, running Linux. A GPU was not a priority for him in first place and it proved it to be more of a problem than a benefit for his use case

Temperature and battery issues were just a part of it. Also some other problems, like an HDMI port that suddenly died, just to name an example. Coincidentally, it was an Asus ROG

I decided that if I want a GPU to use with my laptop for playing some games, I'll opt for an external one

A wise person outside the USA once wrote that they never met someone who failed to meet their savings goals because they only earned the market rate on their stocks, but they met many who failed because they did not earn enough, did not save enough, kept their savings in cash, or paid high fees for their investments.

I was trying to draw attention to the fact that "I'm in the top 2% of earners but I can't afford a house" isn't surprising when legislative factors make it hard to add housing stock, when turnover is low, and when there's net population inflow.

My supposition was intentionally exaggerated to clarify what happens when you don't build enough housing: not to be pedantic, but understanding what happens in "extreme cases" is a common technique in math and physics to understand what happens in more common ones.

I dont really think anyone would call the business models of Opendoor, Offerpad, and formerly Zillow "flipping." Yes, they did buy a house with the intent to sell it but imo the term flipping refers to a much, much smaller scale business that also includes fixing up the property in some way. That is not what iBuyers do.

Bulldozer and it’s competition were both designed at a time where leaking information to another process on the same physical core was outside the threat profile CPU memory protection was designed to mitigate against.

For people thinking that they shouldn't have to support new OS's, I think that's bullshit. they are still in business. they have ample product that can work in modern os's. they have a business because we early adopters were made a promise and we agreed, that's why we paid $60-$100 to begin with. Then less than a couple years into we got fucked and told "we're no longer building that product that has been upgraded 6 times, just this identical one over here that cost a monthly subscription".

They are thiefs, and they should go bankrupt imho.

It really depends on the expected production numbers whether it makes sense to save on hardware. I have worked on expensive products of which only a few thousand were made, predictably because it was specialized stuff, and a lot of money was spent to make the software aceptably fast...

It's different for e.g. cars where it's typically millions, at least for the computing parts.

These kinds of regulations are extremely common (I might even go so far as to say they are the norm) in many US suburbs. Such restrictions are intended to prevent single-famiy homes from being used as large group houses. A probably intentional byproduct of the restrictions is also to keep lower-income residents out of desirable neighborhoods (by preventing for example, two families from occupying a large house that neither could afford individually). Minimum lot sizes have a similar consequence. If you're interested in getting into the history of housing restrictions, particularly as they pertain to efforts to limit lower-income (often minority) buyers, Richard Rothstein's The Color of Law is a good book to start with.

Ask HN: Viable bridge jobs from data engineer to malware reverser
Hi friends,

*Context*:

- In 5 years made the transition from Customer Service -> Business Analyst -> BI Developer -> Data Engineer (2m ago);

- Plan to stay on DE job at least for 2 years;

- Would like to land on a malware analyst (reversing) position eventually;

- Since there is a huge skill gap, I'm seeking jobs that bridge the gap

*Research*:

- I'm a self starter but I'm much more persistent when learning on current job and for next job (when some skills can transfer). Thus it's beneficial to find a series of jobs instead of just teaching myself;

- Malware analyst needs the following skills: Sys programming, Reading assembly, Using decompiler, Know OS internals, etc. None is needed as a DE.

- Possible bridge jobs: DE -> DevOps (more Linux, maybe a bit of security) -> Cyber Security analyst -> Malware analyst

*Question*:

What is your recommendation? I'm very curious if anyone actually walked similar roads, maybe not from a DE, but from similar positions.

Thanks in advance~~
Every city, sure, but cities are expensive. Even cities that used to be affordable, like Portland and Austin. But between the cities? Not much. Some small towns might work if you’re the town lawyer or MD, but a town can only support so many of those. And if you’re an engineer or banker? Not much employment.

I can only say that the web3 narrative is certainly rigged to make the VCs not only to 'pretend' to care about their interest, but also to never lose.

This has been done in with many projects like 'Internet Computer' (ICP) [0], 'Ethereum Name Service' (ENS) [0] and the latest addition, ApeCoin [1], (by Bored Ape Yacht Club). This involvement of VC firms and listed on many exchanges simultaneously at the same time [2] resembles a giant pump and dump scam and using retail as exit liquidity.

Who knows whether if the insiders will do the exact same thing as ICP or ENS. That is the scam and illusion of 'web3'.

> What happens to the price of housing in that limit?

The price continues to reflect the supply and demand of the houses. You’re either lucky to inherit the land, or you earn enough to outbid others for it. It might even be impossible to outbid those who are bringing inherited wealth to the table.

It might become a transient community, where you work and save and then leave to settle somewhere else.
Heroes Are Not Replicable (2007)
Exactly. Formerly the 'unseen' behavior was seasonal renting brokered through agents or high-end advertising. This still kept locals out of the house, but 1) it was harder for normal people to become aware of the listings in the first place 2) One renter who comes every weekend for an entire season 'feels' more like a local.

Now what we have is listings that are easily found via google and a much broader set of visitors whose faces change every week. Our limited brains interpret that as a much bigger shift than it may actually be.
Even luxury units add supply to the middle and affordable parts of the housing stock. Today's luxury units are often bought and moved into by someone moving up from a mid-market place, the buyer of which is likely moving up from a 25 year old now affordable place.

(Alternately, if no luxury unit is built, many of those buyers will be forced to buy the best-of-the-rest if they want to move in, putting more pressure on the middle, which in turn puts pressure on the affordable.)
There is a certain breed of exec who is extremely generous with what they consider work. They will read a few articles after dinner and consider it "working all evening." Staying up late idly scrolling through LinkedIn is "working past midnight." Their accounts don't differentiate between operational work and social activities that relate to work. For example, wining and dining a stakeholder is always considered several hours of pure work. Once I worked with a CEO whose "80 hour" weeks included regular binge drinking and 2am kebabs with his buddies on the board.

As a potential landlord who is doing this very thing right now, it isn't really "throwing money away", because of asset appreciation. If you get stuck with a bad tenant it's way more hassle than if you had just let it sit and AirBnB'd it every once in a while. Especially for properties where the rent is less than the appreciation per month.
