think about this statement, good nurses are taking care of the people you love the most in their most helpless hours. how fucking cruel are we as a society for taking this type of love for granted? its just wrong to use people like that. nurses biggest psychological problem is that they ignore themselves and love others and take care of them better. i think its really shitty. like veterans of defensive wars.
It's always been bad. But Google has always been less bad then other search engines.

Then also you need to ask the right question. Googling something like "Toyota RAV4" will give wildly different results than "common problems with Toyota RAV4".

In this particular case the better question should've perhaps been something like:

Dude, please, give me a break.

Erik Meijer is that, eurhm, person, I remember from publicly stating that his favourite resarch method is "throwing things at the wall and see what sticks". WOW. That's the way of the true academic. Of course it might have been the case that he was being really truly utterly facetious/cynical, but I certainly don't recall having any sense of that, not even remotely, upon reading that remark. (And if it means anything to you, I don't recall someone like Dijkstra ever writing anything like that anywhere. But of course Dijkstra was one of the last *TRUE* academics.)

And he is also that, eurhm, person, I remember from "All your databases are belong to us", which drove Chris Date to writing the response he did (published both in the ACM and in his own book "Stating the obvious") in which he publicly shamed the ACM itself for lending its pages to such sheer utter nonsense.

You might want to read the substance. If it shows anything at all, it's the absolute absence of value there is to be found in having a PhD these days.

USBs are a significant form of sharing information in North Korea. Many citizens have devices with USB ports and SD card slots. So for many years, North Korean defectors have organized efforts to smuggle outside info into North Korea on USB drives to counter Kim Jong-un’s constant propaganda. But these groups were buying memory devices at cost with limited resources. Flash Drives For Freedom is a campaign that travels the world inspiring people to donate their own memory drives. An initiative launched and managed by the Human Rights Foundation, Flash Drives for Freedom is significantly increasing the capacities of these North Korean defector groups.

Bibucket's code review tools are really bad.

As usual for Atlassian products, every click takes 1-2 seconds.

Finding comments requires manually scrolling. There is a filter function, but it takes some time to load. And even then, there's no way to sort comments chronologically.
As a result, we would be constantly missing responses if it wasn't for the email notifications.

If a correction is made through force-push, you'll have no idea what was changed compared to the replaced commit.

The phone interface is unusable.
On iPad, scrolling unintentionally adds comments.

There is a VSCode Plugin which is slightly better, but even there we frequently miss comments or changes.

I'd be in favor of letting mandatory vehicle noisemakers use something this. That'd be a nice selling point. "Our electric cars dont sound like shit!" Cool.for users, cool.for the world.

A lot of electric vehicles sound like coil whine. Shrill high pitched whine. The new Amazon backup sound is, i think, chirps of pink noise; could be much worse I dont want arbitrary sound- because folks have no taste & would pick obnoxious garbage- but letting folks mix together some decent ambient sounds- that sounds acceptable, to fulfill mandatory minimum pedestrian notification requirements.
They don’t sell data, they let anyone who buys ads choose who the ads go to based on anonymized data.

They also made it way harder to run political ads after public sentiment changed in 2016.

You can go buy an ad from them right now. So can “foreign groups.” Neither of you will get access to anyone’s data.

Same goes for YouTube, Twitter, Snap, etc.

If you’re worried about “foreign groups” there’s this Chinese app called TikTok that knows everything about every American under 30 that no one seems to be concerned about.

Very smart and admirable for taking a risk. When you look at what Kia has done with their cars in the last decade, they really are an ascendent company.

I go on about Yamaha as a company a bit, but when I saw this, I saw a future Yamaha level of design. Cars are just rolling smartphones now anyway, and even if this instrument becomes a loss leader, it may move Kia from a car company to a lifestyle brand.

The pink noise stuff is more interesting than the woo implied by it, since it's the basis for lofi beats, and ambient/minimalist music in general is arguably hitting a new crest probably not seen since the early 90s. I just paid an unreasonable amount of money for tickets to see Olafur Arnalds, and saw a symphony do a Philip Glass premire just the other week. The old musique concrete concept was full of pretentious silliness, but the core idea of 'music as an experience' seems to be blooming just now. If you listen to electronic music and DJs, a lot of it is ephemeral, and this Kia instrument for personal sound design seems like a tool for that same experiential music.

Their appeal to science on this one is neither here nor there for me, but I've done some reading on the topic to support my own music experients. These were the papers that I used to justify buying more VCOs for my modular rig, and they may be on to something:

> nobody is holding a gun to your head forcing you to buy phones you can't root

No, I'm sorry, I seriously don't understand how that applies in this case. How is "trusting the content you get from `apt-get`/`dpkg`/`pacman`" safer than curling-to-bash? In both cases, you are downloading and installing content from a trusted source (assuming you are curling via https to avoid MITMs). In the curl-to-bash case, you have the _ability_ to at least inspect the code first before you install it (though, realistically, how many folks would really have the dedication and the ability to do so?), whereas with package managers you're installing "blind". Doesn't that make curling-to-bash the _safer_ option?

I clearly must be missing something, here, because everyone decries "curling-to-bash" as a bad security practice, but I haven't seen an explanation of _why_. I tried doing some research for myself - this page[1] suggests that package managers have built-in checksumming and signature verification, but then goes on to propose an attack vector where the load balancer is compromised, so (presumably?) those same checksums/signatures could also be intercepted and faked. This gist[2] has a lot of people speaking against it, but from following those links, the only downside I could see was here[3], pointing out that the shell will keep executing if a connection closes mid-stream - which, yes, is certainly a bad thing and a good argument to use package managers, but not what I would call a security concern (unless you don't trust the entity on the other end of the stream - and, again, I'm taking that as a prerequisite both for `curl | bash` and for using package managers). This[4] demonstrates that a server can detect `curl | bash` and render differently - but, again, if you trust the entity at the other end, that's not an issue.

This is a genuine question, not a fight - you clearly know more about this than me, so I'm asking for your perspective, not challenging you. I recognize that there are non-security flaws to `curl | bash` (handling updates, handling unreliable connections), but I don't see how it's a security concern. How would a malicious attacker exploit someone doing a `curl | bash` from a trusted location over https?

Honestly, why not? It's quite likely there has been a decent amount of information passing back and forth between NASA and various private space companies - there isn't a sane reason to require everyone to make the same mistakes that you've already learned from. Additionally while releasing rocket specifications probably won't result in any at-scale replicas it's a good way to feed the hobbiest community and possibly get some neat ideas back.

There are some components of rocketry that deserve careful consideration in sharing (i.e. rocket fuels) but a lot of those have mostly leaked at this point and the government has other reasons to limit their production and thus limits the supply of chemical components.

Much like with software there are going to be some secret components related to communication and the like - but those can be cherry picked from the information and deliberately hidden... similar to how most software teams don't check all their private SSH keys into public repos (usually).
There are times when I just cannot come up with the terms to get past the SEO at all and just give up, not knowing the answer or finding the relevant source. It seems like it happens all the time these days. You end up with something like writers block coming up with new ways to frame the question to shake off the spam. The best I can hope for usually is appending site:usuallyrelevantinfo.com to a term but that requires a priori knowing these good sites for a given topic.

This salty snippy rejectionist behavior doesnt help. Being so certain of failure, convincing everyone not to try to improve things, swearing all attempts are futile... dont you see what vaccuous sucking nihilism this is? It's badgering & bullying to have a stance that is so uncompromising, so mightily assured of failure, that phrases "concerns" so demeaningly. There's no room for any possibility that maybe, just maybe, we could make things better, and that: I hard reject as cruel & unsavory.

Super agree. I read up on bit fields [0] a while ago and some of the details about them are bonkers:

> The special unnamed bit-field of size zero can be forced to break up padding.

> int b:3; may have the range of values 0..7 or -4..3 in C

> on some platforms, bit-fields are packed left-to-right, on others right-to-left

Yes, agreed, those fixtures would absolutely help with a large-scale repair operation. But if you're only doing it occasionally for your own device, the time taken to receive, unpack, pack and send back the fixtures would probably take more than just using lower-cost tooling that you own.

A big reason why I do my own repairs is because it allows me to optimize the logistics of it by removing the time-sensitive component of shipping; I order common parts & tooling (multiples so I have spares if I fuck up) well in advance of any breakage so that the actual repair no longer depends on the shipping service or my ability to receive packages. Putting the shipping service back in the critical path would negate all those advantages for me, making it no better than just shipping the entire device to Apple/AASP to begin with.

The only major advantage I see here is that the display press would likely guarantee the water-tightness of the repaired phone, though personally I've always just done without and accepted that my device is not watertight, especially considering I don't trust the factory one either after months of heavy use, thermal cycles and minor mechanical shocks & damage.

> This could be targeted at corporations that have staff to do in-house repairs of their hardware.

Hopefully in the future, yes. As it stands though this is unusable for large-scale in-house repair operations as you can't stock parts and have to order them as needed since you need to return the old part in a timely manner.
At this point they can't:
