They make it so that you usually don't have too. You run into selinux issues usually only when you:
- run some server stuff
- try to serve a non default directory

And 99.99% of the time you will usually understand the issue from the log file and just label the correct files/directories. All this without having to change a policy. Policy creation/modification is pretty much the job of a package maintainer only.

I have been using Fedora daily for something like 7 years and have never had to write/modify a policy. The article originally linked is about some guy who do tests and run beta distros on prod and fiddle with his system by blindly copy/pasting stuff he sees in forums without really trying to understand what he does, then complain about his distro breaking on update. I don't think you can ever render your distro unbootable unless you do some very stupid things. And Fedora do not steer you to do those stupid things.

There are just so many policies it is not practical to list them all if you don't need them.

Only complain I would say is that sealert is not installed by default so if you want to have desktop notifications about an selinux issue you need to install it manually. I'd prefer it to be just a toggle in settings defaulting to no to decide to show or not show those notifications.

> it should take more surprising evidence to shake up your beliefs about the coin that it would to shake up your beliefs about Mars, right?

I would say it's the exact opposite. Encountering an unfair coin would not surprise me a bit because I know, for example, that double-headed coins exist. But encountering life on Mars would surprise me a lot because I've accumulated a lot of evidence already that there isn't any. (There might have been in the past, but there isn't any now.)

The only thing that I consider "surprising" is encountering evidence that moves one of my priors from being close to 0 to being close to 1 or vice versa. That happens less and less as time goes by because (I hypothesize) my beliefs converge to reality, and reality is stable in the sense that there is something out there towards which it is possible to converge. But at no stage in this process are my beliefs about propositions modeled by anything other than numbers between 0 and 1, with 0 meaning, "I am absolutely certain this proposition is false", 1 meaning, "I am absolutely certain this proposition is true", and 0.5 meaning, "I have absolutely no idea whether or not this proposition is true."
One thing that makes it worse is that the knowledge base resources are usually pretty good.

> Obviously this new religion is Marxism

What annoys me about this line – a lot of "old school Marxists" are actually as opposed to "wokeness" [0] as many conservatives are. Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Mao – by today's standards these men were social conservatives (at times even extreme ones), and if they somehow miraculously rose from the dead, for all we know they still would be – and they'd very likely view contemporary "wokeism" as a capitalist plot to sow division among the proletariat and distract people from the real work of revolutionary class struggle.

Look at something like the recently launched Compact magazine, which brings together Marxists such as Edwin Aponte, Slavoj Zizek, and the Marxist feminist Nina Power with right-wing (many would even say far-right) Catholics such as Sohrab Ahmari, Matthew Schmitz and Adrian Vermeule – who seem to have realised that as much as they radically disagree with each other about innumerable things, in "woke" contemporary progressivism they have a common enemy.

[0] I know some people object to the term, "wokeness". It certainly seems at times overused. But, on the other hand, there seems to be a real thing – a certain sort of contemporary bourgeois progressivism which prefers boardroom endorsements to class struggle, emphasises race/ethnicity/gender/sexuality over class, claims to be standing up for the marginalised and oppressed yet instead functions in practice as a way for academic/corporate/media elites to look down on the hoi polloi, speaks of any criticism as if words of disagreement were deadly bullets of lead, etc, etc, etc – and we need to have a name for that thing. If we shouldn't call it "wokeness", what should we call it? Most people who object to that particular name will also object to any serious alternative. And "wokeness" isn't just a figment of the right-wing imagination, because people on the left (whether centre-left or far-left) criticise it too–for example, the African-American Marxist political scientist Adolph L. Reed Jr.

Ask HN: Tip of my tongue – Reverse path wireless power solution?
Hi HN,
Does anyone remember a supposedly new wireless power transmission mechanism?

I don't remember much about it but the way it was supposed to work is it would beam the power to the device back the way some original signal was sent FROM the device, regardless of how many other things it bounced off of, it would trace the signal back and send it power by the same route it received the original signal.

Thanks in advance

There’s practically nothing on this. `man selinux` lists some of the tools (last updated in 2005) in “see also” section. On Fedora, half the referenced man pages are missing, though. You’ll need to read a book (or a book’s worth of man pages) to get anywhere.

Online high schools are already a thing; Connections Academy is the largest where I live.

I took a few classes there, and from what I remember, the primary mode of instruction was a janky early-2000s webapp that presented excerpts and quiz questions from a textbook. There were teachers and lectures, but a lot of kids didn't show up to those, and class sizes were relatively small. (I was frequently the only kid who dialed in to the conference call for my French conversation class, so I got a lot of one-on-one time with the teacher.) Social events like clubs were primarily handled through web forums that I didn't spend much time in because I wasn't a full-time student at the school.

The marketing copy here makes it sound like Khan World School is fundamentally the same model, but hopefully Khan Academy's online textbooks are a little less janky.
In today's world, governments are more interested than ever in innovative technology that can help protect their citizens. The military, police forces, and other security agencies are all looking for ways to perform their duties more efficiently, safely, and effectively.

But many of the companies that have the knowledge and capabilities to help are small startups working in a highly competitive market. Getting noticed by a government buyer is difficult since they only purchase from large businesses; small companies need to grow into large ones before they can do business with government agencies, but government contracts are the way to make this happen.

The goal of defense startups is therefore to get acquired or go public so they can be seen as legitimate suppliers.

This means that although they may start out as nonprofits or charities at first, they eventually become commercial enterprises with stockholders and executives.

So you're feeling a little burnt out on tech. We get it. It's hard to stay excited about the same thing for such a long time. And tech is always changing, so it can be hard to keep up with what's new and cool.

Here are a few things you can do to renew your interest:

- Read non-tech books and articles, and watch movies with no connection to technology—by taking breaks from tech, you help yourself remember why you were interested in it in the first place.

- Explore different kinds of technology—from augmented reality to virtual reality to artificial intelligence, there are so many different ways that tech impacts our lives today. By exploring different kinds of technology, you help yourself understand what part of tech inspires you the most.

- Teach other people about technology—it's one of the best ways to learn! By teaching others about how tech works and how it can benefit them in their daily lives, you'll find that your knowledge deepens as well.

This is just another paid MOOC, and it seems very expensive for students from outside AZ/the U.S.? I find it kinda disappointing that the Khan folks are getting involved in this kind of thing, as schools might now have reason to start distrusting their previously-successful model of just offering content and support to students and educators in a fair and non-discriminatory way.

- accessibility

- seamless localisation

I have found I just can't keep track of all of these things as well as React does.

At the same time, I think React is a huge, dependency-laden mess, very difficult to learn (because it's changed its mind on how to do things about 100x, so no responses to issues on SO apply to your version of React, Redux, React Router, etc), slow as hell and probably overkill for most projects...

> Uber is a doomed business.

why?
The two problems with this philosophy are:

Firstly, evidentially, people do care about disparity: increasing disparity seems to adversely affect people physiologically, independently from wealth. That is, having someone else be significantly richer than you, independently of your own health, seems to create stress effects in a population. By the metrics of national health and well-being, it seems like wealth disparity is a bad thing in its own right.

Secondly, the problem with billionaires is not that they simply have so much money, it's that one's ability to influence society, including making and breaking the rules of society, is intrinsically tied to money. For example, consider the recent news about Bezos buying a new boat, and having to take down and rebuild a bridge to get it to sea. On the one hand, it doesn't really matter to me how much he spends on that boat - it's his money, and he can use it as he likes. However, the people of Rotterdam were promised that the bridge would remain put, yet Bezos' money (presumably via the shipyard that organised this) was enough to override the democratic process, presumably alongside adding a significant inconvenience to the people living there.

Or consider the recent trend of billionaires buying media companies. On the one hand, it's kind of irrelevant how they want to invest their money, but on the other hand, these media companies afford significant impact on the views and perspectives seen by society. If we really want to claim that we live in a democracy, it seems dangerous to also accept that one person can, essentially on a whim, buy one of the largest social media platforms with only vague hints as to what he plans to do with it. That sort of power is absolutely not something that you (I assume) or I personally can wield, yet it could well have a significant impact in shaping public opinion.

As long as money can be roughly equated to power, then wealth disparity will remain a very important thing to be concerned about.

It's hard to ignore the fact that signals can be dangerous, especially when they are a distraction while you're driving.

However, autonomous cars are not making it easy for us to navigate the roads safely.

Let's take an example. Say you're driving along, and all of a sudden the traffic lights turn red. You don't want to stop, because you're in a hurry—but you also don't want to be caught in a situation where you're ignoring red lights and being pulled over by law enforcement. The problem is that both options will end badly for you: you'll end up getting in trouble with the cops or having a near-accident with other drivers.

So what do you do? Well, if you were using an autonomous car, using your signal would probably be your best option—but this could actually lead to more accidents.

Remember that self-driving cars are programmed not to react to things that aren't important to them—and signals, which are a vital part of driving, can be dangerous distractions in addition to being an obstruction on the road that could cause accidents with other drivers or pedestrians. So even though we know signals can be dangerous, we still need them.
OP was probably thinking of Finland.
Yeah, but you have to concede that "anybody" means anybody. You can't go around changing the meaning of words and expecting people to just grok it and then act all smug when people don't.

> There are tools for interacting with the system, but good luck figuring out what they’re even called.

They are mentionned in the selinux documentation of your distro.

> Answering the question, “What do I need to label files that should be read by program X?” is waaay to hard. You’re expected to put your files in certain locations and then some things work out-of-the-box. However, there’s no documentation on where you’re supposed to put the files.

The default directories are usually mentionned in the manuals of those programs. If you are using an selinux based distro, you know that if you don't use those default dirs you will have to label your custom dir. This is not hard to understand nor to do.
I can understand that perspective, although I maintain the usage is only preferred because of familiarity.

Since you are already on the fence with ISO8601 I invite you to consider time of day. Would you use second:minute:hour? That is also in (reverse!) “chronological magnitude” order.

Alright, sure its a valid perspective
It is bad because of the reasons I explained in my other comment.

They pretend to release a whole distro while in fact they are only caring for a narrow set of packages and break other functionality of the same underlying distro. This is bad.

If you distribute a whole distro it is expected that everything works, like it is the case with Debian or Ubuntu. It might produce a bad image of Linux as perceived by new users when they realize that many things of this distro do not work at all. This is not the quality delivered by other Linux distros, so it is doing a bad job in representing Linux.

At least they should explain that on their website, e.g. "We deliver something we call a distro but this is not the same thing as you get from other people that deliver distros, we are only actively supporting one special desktop environment, but other things might not work as experienced with other distributions. We decided anyway to pretend we are releasing a whole Linux distro because..." (reason should be explained.)

I hope this was better explained. I still totally respect the work they put into it and I am thankful that a company is doing this at all, but they are distributing their software in a bad way.
