You can do this a variety of ways, most of which boil down to automating a reverse proxy server and generating acme certs. My favorite is Caddy server if you want to build and manage it yourself.

Things get trickier if you want to handle this well for globally distributed servers, since you'll need to have a cluster of reverse proxies near or colocated to your app servers. That needs an anycast IP address to handle A records for apex domains, and usually you want them coordinating to share certs, cache, etc. efficiently. In that situation I'd recommend reaching for a paid service, since there can be a lot to build and maintain.

Source: I built approximated.app, which is a service that does all of that for you.
I've used Windows nearly my entire life, save for brief dalliances with Kubuntu in my teens and Mac as an adult. Even though I'm happy to see that Microsoft is giving back more to open source than they were twenty years ago, I'm done with Windows as of this year. Between the loss of control, the advertisements, and the dark patterns, I can't stand using it anymore. Just picked up a System76 for my new daily driver and it's been a great experience.

Windows is racing to the bottom as fast as it can. It reeks of desperation.
Multiple dispatch (it can be thought of as OOP on steroids) is particularly helpful for generic programming. It helps write really elegant Code with maximum reuse. I think Julia is the only contemporary language built around this. Some Lisp variants support this idea to different extents, with bolted-on features.
First it was, 'Our product is free, So you need to stake your privacy and with it your ability to focus'.

Now, 'Your privacy and focus is ours even if you pay for our HARDWARE'.

Unless, consumers start seeing advertisements as an insult to their intellect this will get worse.
> These conditions are so restrictive that of course everybody breaks them, often without knowing it. Thus, the NR license makes itself a farce.

It doesn't necessarily make the license a farce. An Oracle-like business model can be established by auditing the users of the NR library and assessing fees for license violations, including the inadvertent ones.
It’s Easy to Blame Mental Health Issues on Tech. But Is It Fair?
Whatever terminates the connection (e.g. nginx, haproxy, apache) needs to be configured for each supported domain. As a platform this would mean having code to modify and reload the config and put certs in place on behalf of users.

I think it's about company image.

Microsoft has a long standing reputation for bundling crap and bloat its OS, while doing whatever-telemetry and harder to catch as the author of the OS itself.

Valve and Steam has a much better reputation for now, and is respected by many players. I'm not saying it's perfect but at least it's loved by players whereas Microsoft/Windows is more into the hated category, for good well-deserved reasons.
Google's own devices don't have hardware support for AV1 playback yet.

> I guess the major difference is the Stasi was working for a single Nation State, whereas the 3 entities you named perform political-repression-as-a-service for many governments around the planet

The NSA? No, I don’t think they’re for-hire.

And the others aren’t in the business of political repression: none are known for kidnapping people and driving them around in an unmarked van for intimidation. Perhaps the NSA also kidnaps people, but I don’t remember Snowden mentioning it.

> True, but Facebook had a choice…

All of which reflects badly on the business and its leadership, and yet is very very different to an actual repressive regime.

You do get that repressive regimes will take a family and order their parents to decide which child lives and which child dies, right?

Even though I agree with you that Facebook going “freedom of speech for everything except the defining characteristic of mammals” is a bad thing, that’s peanuts in comparison.
Not to mention defender application guard, which lets you with two clicks launch a browser tab in a separate VM for isolation.
People in the workforce that get handed over a laptop with Windows usually don't have any control on it due to company policies, so this is a non-argument. For the rest, I doubt 99% of people actually "need" Windows. 50%? Probably, possibly. Also, proprietary software has nothing to do with Linux or not Linux, there is proprietary software that's not Windows only.

I also don't think any of this is about privilge, it's about control. If you want control, you have to work for it. That's how everything works in life. People will always try to take away from you control. Switching to Linux may take work, but it will give you control. Learning a bit more Windows (like the operations mentionned earlier, the registery) will probably be easier and give you less. Everyone can then adjust things depending on how much control they want and time/energy they have.
>they could prevent OEM from doing it through licensing

Preventing installation of third-party software. This will certainly go well in Europe.
Hyperbole and pro-war propaganda are the norm for this topic, but historical accuracy does matter. Russia is the aggressor in the Ukraine war, but if Russia was 'Nazi Germany' they'd be building forced-labor concentration camps all across Ukraine, as Nazi Germany did in Poland, prior to the murder of millions of people in those camps.

Similar hyperbole is trotted out in every conflict. The Saudis are Nazis to the Yemeni people, the Israelis are Nazis to the Palestinian people, so we should have a mass boycott and divestment not just from Russia, but from Saudi Arabia and Israel as well. Of course this isn't going to happen, and thus the moral authority to condemn Russia's aggression doesn't actually exist for the United States (see Iraq as well).

As far as nukes, we'd be back in the large-scale tank battles of WWII without nukes. They generally have a stabilizing influence as the architects of wars are notably reluctant to place themselves on the firing line; sending kids off to die somewhere else is not a problem for them, but facing the nuclear annihilation of their own home is another matter.
Against Adult Supremacy
I recently moved into an all-brick house, it's really quite amazing to me just how much it kills 5 GHz wifi. I knew it was a thing that happened, but it was interesting to walk around with a signal tester and observe it first-hand. Even 2.4 isn't very strong. It's noticeably better when you are lined up with a window and AP, but still very spotty.

As I'd like to be able to work sitting out on the deck, one of my spring projects is to trench some ethernet out to a shed (plywood and vinyl siding construction) and add another AP.
Haha, yes! That's so annoying, that we've contorted the language to the point that one can end up saying things like, "I support making housing affordable, but I'm not for Affordable Housing(tm)."
Ethics and apologizing seem very intertwined.
> A good phd fundamentally transforms who you are as a person.

Huh? I've heard this a lot and I just don't see it. What is supposed to happen to you? I got one in math, published my 3 papers like they wanted, and that was it. I don't think I changed me one bit, other than not enjoying education/academia anymore.
You are correct, it does work.

My mistake was basing my statement on past experiences using an older Firefox ESR version which would give "Content Security Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource at inline (“script-src”)." when clicking on a bookmarklet for sites like Twitter or Github.
I really think we need a major shift in how we handle static content. This stuff should be near zero-cost by now.

Ideally so cheap that your ISP has a CDN and publishers pay nothing to get them to cache it, it's just included in your internet service. For some people things could even be cached temporarily at the building level.

SSDs are very fast and hardware acceleration exists. Why so we need such massive servers in a data center?

A movie is only 90 minutes. A single disk and some ASICs should be able to serve tens of thousands of people, if you could make dedicated hardware without all the stuff that's irrelevant for streams, just a bunch of cores with DMA going straight into crypto and out a bunch of Ethernet ports.

If we can make a tiny 10 gigabit swith with tons of ports in one rack, why can we not add some sticks of ram and do CDNs in hardware?
you can always start now by doing an undergrad. :)

I've had students aged above 50 years old in my undergrad degree, and I plan on going back to school myself for another undergrad in an unrelated field in my 30s.
It's nice and it has some gentrification, but the housing stock is much bigger than the number of gentry that wish to become landed. There's much to enjoy there but also some sections that aren't so expensive.

The right solution would be to make a log file at startup, and append a copy of the original text and then every last bit of input, exactly as it is typed, interspersed with some metadata. Then, if anything happens, you just exit on the spot, and absolutely nothing is lost.

The type of stuff edited doesn't matter: could be audio, video, 3D design, vector drawing.

All editors should operate this way. It is disgraceful none do.

Yeah. Though it is not difficult to build such a machine and similar machines have been around, such as CD Jukebox players and multi-disc burners.

OP's quoted text.
Indeed. Not getting a HOA was a hard requirement for us.

The fascinating thing about HOAs is that they’re all done under the guise that they “improve property values”, but I’ve never seen any evidence that this works. From my geographic location it seems like non-HOA factors drive prices (supply, demand, neighborhood location and nearby amenities like transit and shopping), not whether or not the neighbors flower bed matches the “neighborhood character”[0]. From what I see it just seems to let petty tyrants control their neighbors; the property value argument seems like a transparent excuse.

0 - You see this phrase a lot in zoning discussions and it makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills. As if neighborhood character is a concrete thing that can be pointed to and protected, rather than a constantly changing and emergent result of the humans living in a place.
For the upcoming 2.0 release, they are actually planning to rebrand as “Regolith Desktop Environment,” as well as adding Debian support.
There's a big part of me that agrees with this. I am a bit worried though that we're making it harder and harder for new people coming into the world to make new startups, with more and more rules like this imposing a higher entry cost. Feels like we're just going to have massive companies in the future who are able to navigate all this, and too high a barrier of entry for new companies.
There is no canonical transliteration, though. Also it doesn't make sense to learn Greek like that, and nobody does in practice.
Maybe I’m weird but I never had faith in them.

I don’t know when I learned it, but I’ve looked it up a few times to be sure I’m not day dreaming; after the WW2, declassified propaganda research became the basis for ad and marketing programs in university.

It’s always been about establishing a mood and inserting a meme to go with it. Maybe that’s “gotten worse” as we whittle stats looking for growth. I think people are just aware of what’s always been true.

Somewhere along the way it became blind allegiance to a certain kind of agency, like a religion. We’re all busy FOMOing, being ourselves, like the Sprite commercials told us, we miss that we’re just shuffling along the same old routine as dad and grandpa, feeling too unique to be required to grow a potato or sew a pillow.
> The only thing that has ever stalled the gushing blood for long is commerce.

And religion.

Makes sense. I think many people would put Scheme in its own branch as well.

This is just the amount of power the washing machine uses while it is on. You need to know the energy required to manufacture all of the components and the duty cycle, to know if it makes sense to replace an appliance for a more efficient one or not.

For example even if my phone charger were to get twice as efficient, it’s drawing very little power, given that it spends most of its time unplugged: it uses a fraction of a watt. That means that I would have to use it for an extremely long time to get near to the amount of energy used to manufacture a new one.

Sure, everyone has some sort of a space where a computer could be used. But there's a huge difference between "kitchen counter or dining table or couch where you can unfold your laptop on occasion" and "a place where you can work in comfort and without interruptions from the rest of your household for 8 hours at a time every day and not develop back and wrist pain".
It's worse than that, they were self-titled. So if there were some mechanism for numbering untitled albums, it can break down.
It's a substantive. It fits here fine.
To a first approximation, a small business takes approximately as much time as a large business.

There are exceptions. Generally, they require adequate capitalization (financial, social, and/or free-time).

The other test is ideas are cheap and execution expensive, so good ideas are only those that you are actually executing.

The relevance here is that you asked a question here rather than working on the idea (no criticism). It suggests the idea is not as good as you wish it was.

The only way to get work done is to get work done, and the reward for work is more work. Good luck.
You first state that 'everyone treats gays, lesbians and bisexuals badly', only to walk it back a few words later. Why did you say it in the first place?

Also, I asked for proof of your statement in the here and now, not for historical proof. Not 'was' but 'is'. Furthermore, the fact that some things are illegal in some countries does not mean anything for how those things are treated in liberal western democracies which is what I was asking about.

The fact that 'new laws being passed in the US which some LGBT groups consider to be against their interest' is totally irrelevant unless you can show which laws those are and in what way they actually discriminate against gays, lesbians and bisexual people.

You have not shown proof of your claim that everyone treats gays, lesbians and bisexuals badly. It is not up to me to provide you with examples of what would be mistreatment since I did not make any claims about people being mistreated. You made a claim but you can not prove it, it is up to you to either provide proof or walk back your claim.
Interesting. If it is indeed experimentation on human subjects then then they are in violation of tons of laws and regulations around informed consent. Makes me wonder what’s in the click through agreement
You're underestimating the number of people that could switch to Linux but won't because they think it's some thing only running in servers.
> I still find places where functionality is broken

Windows uses Edge for webviews, you shouldn't uninstall Edge if you want these webview.

While yes, using webviews to render things is awful, you shouldn't uninstall edge, it's like uninstalling librairies then complain about how things stop working.
The purpose of war is to achieve a political objective through maximum necessary force in the field. I don't see how deploying EMPs would decide any war in recent memory, including the current one in Ukraine.

It doesn't sound like they're using MAC filtering for Real Security (TM), just to emulate device visibility in the lab.
Yup. I'm stuck at using Visual Studio (not Vscode) for a legacy codebase for work and it's the only reason that I still have to use Windows (though thankfully, in a VM) that doesn't work properly on Mono-rebranded-as-Visual-Studio-which-isnt-the-same-thing.

I'm a Mac user and can't even consider switching to Linux (eventhough I like it) as I use Photoshop, After Effects, Sketch, Logic Pro which anyone would probably agree that they are unmatched.

Anyone who can completely be on Linux are probably people who don't need ANYTHING other than open source software/terminals/code editors etc. which is much less in percentage (but overlapping with the demographics of here a lot).
A pity that it's proprietary, I'd far rather that a tool like that be Free and Open Source.

I discuss this a bit in my https://www.gwern.net/Hydrocephalus as well because it has become the most legendary instance. If you follow the replication crisis and history of scientific fraud and the careers of people like Didier Raoult, there are a lot of things about this story which should raise your hackles (quite aside from the eagerness of people to try to use this to prove the existence of a soul or ESP).

First, the telephone effect: he wasn't a 'maths genius', he simply had a undergrad degree according to Lorber. Lorber also never seems to explain why he was being examined in the first place if he was a totally normal, healthy, ordinary young adult ('unrelated'? why not tell us what? and do specialists really refer for 'a bit too large' a head?). No comparable cases have surfaced in the 40 or so years since Lorber claimed to have found this guy (while his claims about above-average intelligence in many hydrocephalus patients implies we should have seen a lot of them), and Lorber's own failure to publish any detail at all, even scans, is very suspicious (while having plenty of time to talk to journalists and documentarians), especially because scans were rather low quality back then. And this area has had a few instances of fraud detected already by other authors etc. Lots of problems.

I consider it entirely possible that he never existed, or if he did, the extent of his hydrocephalus was greatly exaggerated.
To be fair, political persecution is another application. And maybe I should have started with that.

My principles aren’t contingent on how other people feel. I don’t accept “never hurt feelings” as a moral imperative so it’s not something I’d apologize over alone. That’s not to say that violating my principles couldn’t also hurt feelings, it often does. Also, from a getting cooperation perspective hurting feelings can have pretty low utility. But imprudent and immoral are different.
> How can I subtly hint

Don't hint. State your problem directly. I'd do it in an email to your direct manager, and follow-up to make sure they are raising it up the chain. Start with stating facts. Then state how those facts impact your work and your well-being, or other concerns. Explain why you have a problem with it. If you have a desire to be excluded, state that request simply and directly after explaining your problem with it.

Doing this does not mean you will get your desire - but this order of explaining a concern is an effective way to communicate without it being perceived as anything other than a start of a dialogue.
Kudos to you!

However, even after reading your comment, I am not convinced an average guy will understand any of those terms. I've seen this. I've seen many many people struggling to set up a blog. Heck, even I struggled about this back in the day.
There is nothing cheap about saying sorry if you do all those other things you mentioned?
As a human geneticist, I'm not being cynical: I look forward to taking advantage of graph genomes. I'm just making a prediction about what people will say.
Yes and no. Random pick - we have Braun kitchen blender that is running for 15 years, we use it daily, looks like new apart from few small scratches on plastics.

I see no reason to replace it, new stuff doesn't look better, doesn't work better and doesn't last more (probably the opposite). Tons of things are like that. Yes new fridge will save a bit more electricity (compared to already savvy one from 15 years ago) but the amount of energy and material that go into creating new one, and the amount of waste it produces when disposed of, are non-trivial and not handled well even in richest western societies.

I don't agree with 20 years warranty, many things like batteries and capacitors just don't last that long. But some form of longer warranty would definitely motivate manufacturers to focus more on quality.
