There is the common use of "narcissism" as a synonym for "bad" and I disagree with that.

"Narcissism" is "self-love" and it is a part of the psyche like the heart is part of your body. When people have trouble with their heart they could have high blood pressure, heart disease, heart failure, heart attacks, heart defects, arrhythmia, etc. So even disordered narcissism is more than one disease.

I just brushed my teeth and that's a healthy expression of narcissism.

A physics crackpot imagines that he is an underlooked genius, is "special". The one thing he knows about Al Einstein is that Einstein worked at the patent office, he doesn't know about the many scientists and mathematicians who Einstein worked with. That's unhealthy narcissism.

If somebody is thinking about having money for retirement I'd say narcissism is always involved because you have some conjecture/mental picture about yourself that is based on your self-image, hopes and fears.

It's good to have realistic and positive self-esteem but boy is it hollow, shallow and ineffective to try to paint it on because somebody told you should.

Outside of a few niche hardcore technologists, nobody knows what PGP is or how to use it. It would be hard enough getting my mum set up to PGP sign her own emails in Outlook, on the desktop and from her phone. (Is that even possible?). Let alone require anyone emailing her PGP sign their email too? Thats never going to happen for so many reasons, both technical and social.

I'm a software engineer and I tried setting up PGP years ago in thunderbird and it only worked for a few weeks, then it somehow broke. And then later I lost my PGP key. Oh, and then I started using webmail and PGP didn't work there at all.

And then later still I realised my public PGP key (signed by my web of trust) leaked details on the identity of my social network; which bothers me a lot more than any problems I've personally ever had with a forged identity.

PGP is dead. Let it go.
Yeah that's the other thing: when did losing a job become the only thing that counts as bad?

I am not an economist, but I'll point out that all of these economists would respectfully disagree with John Cochrane: https://www.econstatement.org/

Including 28 Nobel laureates, former Federal Reserve chairpeople, and a few thousand other economists.

But intuitively, I do agree that simply making carbon more expensive won't work. You have to take the money and inject it back into the economy in a way that alleviates the regressive nature of a plain carbon tax while making the revenue available to boost the low-carbon economy. Carbon dividends, if you trust most economists, is the most efficient way to do that.
> they are too much to be repressed

As someone who very much supports individual rights and self-determinism... I think you're drastically underestimating the power and scope of the Chinese state's ability to "repress".

Given the choice between losing power and executing literally everyone in the city of Shanghai, I'm not at all confident that the CCP would choose the former. More realistically, one or two very visible examples of rebellion being dealt with very harshly would almost certainly be enough to quell any potential uprising in China.

I've worked with several people from China, and a handful from Shanghai itself. I've had extensive political discussions with a few of them who became my good friends, and based on that my perception is that the Chinese people as a whole are significantly different culturally from Americans or Europeans. By and large they seem to default to believing that those in power are acting in the interests of the community, that they are party to things that inform their decisions, that the people are powerless to stop those in power, and that even if that weren't the case... another group would rise to power anyhow that would be just as bad.

To put it another way - my cultural heritage is one of "Liberty or Death!". Theirs is "The proud nail draws the hammer".
Having first learned film photography and processing my own film and printing my own prints I wholly embrace digital photography because it allows me to keep in the moment. Everyone seems to be forgetting how ungodly expensive film photography is compared to digital photography. Decades ago the film cost $0.25-$0.35 per frame and you were quite cognizant of that fact while shooting. Add in exposure bracketing and you were paying $1.25 per shot, and again that was decades ago. A roll of film having 24 frames basically represented 5 shots. You had to have several rolls of film and you were constantly managing that resource instead of keeping in the moment.

With digital photography I can bracket all I want. A lot of cameras can do that automatically. I don't have to worry about running out of film, nor do I have to worry about all the money I'm spending in procuring, processing, and printing that film. I don't have to change rolls of film either. That keeps me in the moment.

Just like in the old days I go back after the shoot and look at what I got and discard the rubbish. I do prefer dodging and burning by hand in the darkroom, but I've made my peace with Gimp over the years and I've learned how to use it to maximal effect - and I can do way more than was ever possible in the darkrooms of yore. It really is progress.
I'm a little confused about the cement example. Every inch of rainforest is preserved in year 0, so those factories can produce their ridiculous amounts of CO2 to compensate for the now-safe rainforest. That works IMO since the annual capture of an acre of rainforest is equal to one emission-credit worth of factory. (If that's not how the math works out then that is a fundamental problem that can be solved.)

That's all year 0.

The author forgot about year 1, 2, 3, etc. where those factories would still need to offset their production. Where are the offsets for those years?

The article also neglects some of the point of paying money for offsets, which is paying to research those alternatives that are required to get to true net-zero or negative emissions. They are VC for science that could solve the problem, funded by those causing the problem.
Yeah I don't know that anyone's tested it on Alpine (or any musl system, actually), but it works fine on every GNU/Linux system I've tried. Also depending on when you last tried, it uses autoconf now so none of the weird `make World` stuff.
I think the tests are just the colors under which bureaucratic red tape just happens to sail. Anything that creates barriers to entry will result in people being older before they get their licenses and that is where the bulk of the benefit comes from.
I know someone who was selling an electronic module on Tindie. One day sales went through the floor. Turned out someone had cloned his entire product and was shipping volume on aliexpress. He just closed up shop.

I myself have spent weeks navigating the maze of dodgy NanoVNAs out there. Even one of the official resellers decided to cut costs and ship out poorly functioning clones and try and deny it.

Sure!

First off, no you are not hurting yourself. If anything, you're helping because you're making it harder for your domain to be flagged by spam filters for things you haven't done.

Here's a quick explanation of SPF, DKIM and DMARC.

SPF

- It's a simple record in your DNS that let's you list IP addresses authorized to send email from your domain. 3rd party senders will often ask you to include them in your spf record. With nothing in the record and the "-all" meaning strictly enforced, you've not authorized any senders at all with SPF.

DKIM

- DKIM has to be setup for every sending mail server with a configuration mapped to a key located in your DNS config. If a receiving mail server gets a message without a DKIM signature, it has no way of knowing it should be there.

DMARC

- When you enforce a dmarc policy, you tell a server that receives email saying it is from your domain to only accept it if the message passes either an SPF or DKIM check that "aligns" with the domain. It's possible to send a message saying it's from slimmeryetimbers.com with a DKIM check that passes for "myphishdomain.com" and DMARC will not accept it.

So has to be from one of your allowed IP addresses in the SPF record or must include a DKIM signature from your specific domain. With SPF essentially empty of options, this will mean that an aligned DKIM signature must present the for it to pass.

The dmarc policy is the "p=". A "p=none" is just for show. Doesn't enforce anything. "p=quarantine" asks the receiving mail server to put messages that fail into spam while "p=reject" tells it to not deliver them at all.

-------

So summarizing all of that...the SPF record above says that no IP addresses are allowed to send mail on your behalf and the DMARC record tells the receiving mail server not to allow any messages saying they are from your domain unless they pass the SPF check (which they can't, because nothing is allowed) or they pass the DKIM check (which they can't, because you haven't set any up).

Hope that helps and I'm happy to clarify anything that needs it.
I'm less concerned with the craft of writing than choosing a boring repetitive topic. And trying to write a nonfiction piece that no one wants to read subject matter wise.

I fully expect the craft to suck, but I got over the fear of rewriting already. I'm just frightened of producing something that I pretend is profound and everyone else thinks is obvious. That's a totally different fear
Depending on the situation, yes. In an environment where information is heavily censored, some people are going to be desperate for outside sources of information. They just need to know where to look for.

It's also a red herring too. No answer to your question validates the original commenter's factual understanding of this incident. The commenter got the basic facts completely wrong, which highly suggests that the commenter didn't bother to look beyond the title. But it was apparently enough to label someone an attention seeker.

Last chance to see. Long-outdated of a material we will never see again (barring a "Impossible Film Project" type revival.)

I'm not happy to be aging, but I'm lucky that earlier in life I still experienced all that. Black & white developing, roll film in a medium format twin-lens reflex camera, my brother's experiments in taking pictures on blueprint paper (another long-gone technology)...

The stunning beauty of Agfachrome slides. The weird mishaps that somehow still resulted in viewable photos...

But for me, the earliest digicams (0.75MP, then 2MP for me) were already a clear indication that film's days were numbered, and since first experiencing a DSLR (the Canon EOS300D "Digital Rebel") I've never looked back; in fact that's when I gave away all my darkroom equipment.

I can totally see nostalgia for this stuff if you've never experienced it, and I'd probably want to try it too. But I've already been there, done that.

Oh, one thing that you just don't get in digital is "honestly flawed" low-light photos. The brutal but honest noise of b&w film push-processed to 1600ISO is more aesthetically pleasing than all the computational photography crap used to hide it in a modern digicam. But probably the "honest noise" of a digital sensor pushed to its limits isn't very pretty.
This is exactly how it works in practice. Anyone who works at the bench learns quickly to spot the frauds and fakes and avoids them. That's the "replication" everyone talks about, no special agency to waste funds on boring stuff needed.
They absolutely are warping market forces - that’s the whole point.

We can argue about whether or not this is good (by the sounds of it, probably?) but the entire purpose of them agreeing to restrict their output is to influence the cost of their inputs/outputs.

In the absence of market power, individual firms can’t do that!

Not saying this is right or wrong, or if it even matches up with the case, but this is what I found on price fixing. Businesses are (from my training as an engineer) generally not allowed to coordinate any behavior related to pricing with a competitor.

Quote:

Example: A group of competing optometrists agreed not to participate in a vision care network unless the network raised reimbursement rates for patients covered by its plan. The optometrists refused to treat patients covered by the network plan, and, eventually, the company raised reimbursement rates. The FTC said that the optometrists' agreement was illegal price fixing, and that its leaders had organized an effort to make sure other optometrists knew about and complied with the agreement.

OK - there were a lot of weird printers around way back when. For example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZX_Printer and we had something similar from IBM (though much more sophisticated) connected to one of our IBM 4381s, which few people knew how to use (except me) or why you would want to (including me).

That sounds like a fantastic setup. I wanted to rig something like that over the top of the bed, but underneath would be elegant. I can highly recommend 10 hour rainstorm sounds as well, similar noise profile to industrial white noise but has a more natural association for me

Any time I find anything on Etsy, I double check Amazon. A lot of the time, I find the exact item for sale for less.

Now, I just skip Etsy most of the time, wading through so much junk to find something original is too much work.

It does seem like Etsy has basically become eBay. I used to buy from Etsy all the time, but at this point, I have zero trust that I would actually be buying something handmade from a real, independent creator. Which of course means I just won't buy from them at all. I don't know why Etsy seems to welcome this instead of doing everything they possibly can to fight it.
One of the more surreal things i've seen is in Naples FL where you have elderly behind the wheel of Lamborghinis, Aston Martin, Ferraris and lots of other very very powerful sports cars. Vallet needs to give them extra help getting in and out but then off they go. A simple muscle twitch blipping the gas peddle on those cars would put them so far out of control it would be funny if it weren't life threatening.

This is very reasonable. Etsy is diluting it's brand and becoming a flea-market where I don't trust it.

> but remember just a few years ago when Turkey shot down a Russian jet on the Syrian border and almost led to NATO involvement

It led to nothing, Turkey asked for Patriot missile systems (to protect from attacks from Syria, not Russia or Black Sea), which were hastily provided. Russia started cutting economical ties with Turkey, Erdoğan wrote a personal apology letter to Putin, and after that things got better.

Then https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Andrei_Karlov happened, which is still a mystery in itself, and yet, nothing happened that's interesting NATO wise.
We do, but auditing the mirrored sources is still not straighforward. It's a trade-off between completely blocking all production builds on CVEs and fully transparent mirroring, one we're still trying to balance. It's also expensive - proprietary SaaS offerings in this space are not particularly competitive, and managing it in-house is intensive.

In terms of mandated hand-vetted packages, unless your hand-vetting team is inhumanly well-resourced, you're looking at a stifling corporate environment for engineers there, and/or a lot of attrition. Again, needs to be a balance between central control and autonomy.

Our current approach is simply auditing packages we know are deployed in production and assigning tickets to update/remove within a fixed time period, rather than blocking deployments completely. Probably looking to block select deployments based on criticality in the near future, but again distinguishing between a theoretical exploit and one our code triggers in practice is still pretty difficult to automate without significant noise. And the other issue here is differentiating newly discovered vulns (already in prod - blocking deployment doesn't help) vs newly introduced vulns (not yet deployed).
The "easy" solution seems to be - if it's sold on Amazon, you can't sell it on Etsy.

But I guess that would still harm the original developers of the IP :\

The Problem with Most Programming Tutorials / Books
I would say Python is used pretty much everywhere in the industry, even outside of the data science niche it seems to be popular in right now. Its ease of use and extensive standard library makes it a great choice for one-off CLI tools as well as quick prototyping, and it is not uncommon to e.g. have Python scripts as part of the build pipeline for a C++ or Rust project, or to develop the first iteration of a web app using Flask or even Bottle.

In my opinion Python's strength does not lie in the language itself but rather in its third party package ecosystem. Libraries such as NumPy, Requests and PIL/Pillow provide optimized (and often native) black-box implementations of common tasks and wrap them into simple APIs, turning Python into basically the modern equivalent of shell scripting. You can usually "pipe" data from one library to the other and create complex pipelines in just a few lines of code, without sacrificing too much performance since most of the magic happens within the packages' DLLs. I guess this is what made it popular for data analysis in the first place.

I would strongly recommend OP to familiarize themselves with NumPy and other popular packages, including the data-science-oriented ones, as they might come in handy when writing nontrivial scripts. Writing simple command line tools is also useful for getting used to the standard library.
Under a proper accounting scheme, "avoided emissions" are incentivized by not having to pay the carbon tax on the emissions you avoided. You shouldn't get paid for avoiding emissions, you should just get the benefit of not having to pay the costs of the emissions you avoided.

I work for a large and very well known engineering company and currently our incredibly terrible workflow looks something like this:
Develop locally using VStudio -> transfer repo to network drive -> login to tester via three layers of Remote Desktop Connections -> run and debug code live on tester RDC

Is there possibly a better way of making this workflow more contained in a terminal/single ide environment, without having to jump through the RDC loops?
