Yes that’s correct. Typically there’s is a “flag” or a string of text that the hackers attempt to find.

Good companies have a bug bounty program where people can submit 0-days.
Other countries use nonvoluntary methods for dealing with their addicts or mentally ill and have substantial treatment programs and public asylums. That's the big issue with a lot of these homeless populations here. Case workers reach out, offer care, offer shelter, the person out of their mind with a necrotic leg from their intravenous drug habit says no, and in a few months they die on the street. Maybe they luck out and get a 72 hour hold and are able to actually get the medication they need in that span, find some clarity, and decide to take up these offers of help, but most just end up back where they started. We gutted the public institutions we used to have for these issues, now we are dealing with decades of a failure to treat public mental health and addiction.
You put the arrows down once and the signs up once. Opening windows and doors and managing airflow is a constant effort. Installing better ventilation can get costly. Cheaper to just do the theater.
It seems that there is decent evidence that a group meeting that tries to come up with new ideas does worse than if the same people did so individually, and only then had a meeting to present their best ideas. And by “does worse” I mean that they come up with fewer good ideas, even when they are quite confident that they have completely explored a problem.

Personally I doubt that having face–to–face meetings is ever truly necessary. Once everyone in the group has thought of several ideas, they can write a page or two description of it and why they think it is a good idea. Then the decision makers (which obviously might be the same group) can read those papers and decide between them. Mozilla used to work something like this specifically to allow contributions by volunteers outside the company (no idea if they still do though). The Rust programming language is developed in a similar way: anyone can write an RFC to propose making a change to the language (or the associated tooling, the standard library, etc).

Utility room is a long way from the bedroom, and the utility room door fits well.

As long as you don't select a high-speed spin cycle the washing machine is more or less inaudible from the bedroom.

The beeper, however, isn't inaudible, especially at night.

Great design choice to make the beeper the loudest part of the device ... and then make it unmuteable. Yes, we did once ask the Siemens repair guy during a service visit.
Then just look at the distribution in the USA: Among the states with most homelessness per capita are: District of Columbia, New York, Oregon, Washington State, Alaska. Yes, also Californa, but California has most of everything, including housed people.

IMO NAS setup is much more straightforward on truenas. It’s doable in Proxmox inside a VM or LXC, but true as exposes this all directly via a nice UI. I personally use Proxmox with a simple Debian NFS VM, but for less technical users that just want stuff to work I tend to recommend they stick with truenas.
> Maybe I'm missing something but they don't seem to offer the book as a searchable PDF? There seems to be a Kindle edition and paperback only.

The InformIT page linked from the review has (I'm in the US):

* book for $64

* ebook as ePub, Mobi, and PDF for $51

* book + ebook bundle for $86

The sample PDF is searchable, so I presume the full PDF is as well.

If you're looking at the Amazon listing, then no, I don't expect Amazon to offer PDFs instead of, or even in addition to, a Kindle edition. Oddly, the Kindle edition is more expensive than Amazon's paper copy, or InformIT's ebook.

Based on the sample, this looks like a nice book. It seems to have Meyers-like advice in a more concise, reference-style presentation.

It's a slight concern that all four authors are from the same department of the same company. I don't know anything about Bloomberg Development Environment, but I would be skeptical of a similar offering from, say, Google.

All of A, C, and I only make sense defined relative to a particular transaction vocabulary. Redis is perfectly ACID, as long as your transactions are those supported by Redis's commands.

Conversely, plenty of DBs with programmable transactions (e.g. SQL) are considered work-a-day "ACID" enough, despite some massive gaps in their transactional model (no DDL in transactions, no nested transactions, atomic only when below a certain size, etc.)
It depends on what you mean by "conceive" and "thought experiment." If the thought experiment can be expressed, you can come up with a word to describe the expression of the idea. I think I could imagine some inexpressible ideas (this seems like it would logically follow from the proof that some things are not computable.)

Of course, when you deal with real language your language itself is constrained. If you need to invent a bunch of new words does that count?
Double false. First's it's not true. #1 and #2 are Texas and Californa

Couldn't agree more. Software COULD just solve a problem and then get out of your way, but because we're stuck in a world where MRR is king people are forced into making SaaS trash where the incentives aren't aligned to deliver what technology is capable of. Photoshop/Illustrator was less buggy years ago, and consequently I now just use ancient pirated versions. I feel zero percent bad about this, I'd buy em if I could. Same with Windows, LTSC frozen out of updates is an infinitely better experience than whatever monstrosity Microsoft is peddling these days. Total Commander has been solving the same problems the exact same way perfectly well for 20+ years.

I love innovation as much as the next guy, there are constantly legitimately great advancements in software. That, however is not the same thing as a constant drive for change for changes sake. I want to pay a fair price for tools I can rely on today, not nebulous promises of future improvements that result in tools and processes being broken from time to time. It's not worth it. It's not a good trade-off. The idea that I can have something working perfectly fine and have it suddenly break the next day through no fault of my own is fucking abhorrent. I'm not here for it.

A minimum wage job will get you at least $900 a month.

You can get an apartment for $500. Health Insurance is $30, utilities $200. You can get a minimum of $50 per week in food stamps. You will get about $1000 in EITC each year.

That is with bare-bones, $7.25 an hour minimum wage and the lowest level of assistance.

With a tiny bit of advancement you can afford much more.

Or... housing.
That does bring in an interesting case to look at to try and counter my point. If I am right that schools were one of the largest vectors of all of the other sicknesses that have been heavily suppressed in the past couple of years, than I would expect that in Sweden this suppression was not as pronounced.

Any chance you know of where to look for that data?
Well, this paper suggests I’m wrong and that lower and middle income countries get more infections and more death.

So….why again would avoiding infections be bad? The added infections appear to increase deaths.
I got it: you can only make ad hominems, not address facts about Australia’s death numbers.

> A reasonable presumption is that people are morons or liars unless shown otherwise.

Is that confirmed when the only argument those people offer is ad hominems?
I’d try both, they tend to target different use cases. Proxmox doesn’t come with a lot of the tooling for things like SMB, LDAP, etc that Truenas ships with but you may find you don’t actually want any of these extras. In that case Proxmox would be a better choice IMO since it’s Debian based and a bit more streamlined.
The trouble is that with many games loot boxes are purchased with an in game currency that can be both earned through game-play and purchased with real money. This blurs the line between what is and is not a real money transaction.
Wow, I didn't expect to see so much pushback from the community here. This sounds pretty obvious to me.

Gimp is really not adequate for everyday usage compared with Photoshop? Really?

LibreOffice/OpenOffice doesn't provide adequate alternatives to spreadsheet/doc/csv? Really?

Notepad++ is not good enough of a text editor? Really?

One semi valid criticism is that there isn't a support infrastructure to help organizations with their open source needs. While I don't believe it on it's face, regardless, this is an opportunity to push for that infrastructure and to help every single FOSS project with funding to support the community needs.

Public infrastructure should not be captured by vendor lock-in.
If your lsp-client code is doing anything where you need binding with a native library or the speed of emacs lisp is a factor, you are doing it wrong. All an lsp-client needs to do is make requests to the lsp-server, listen to the responses and update the UI. It literally doesn't matter how slow emacs-lisp is.

The only way an lsp-client could be slow is by making a request to the server and then blocking on the response - which is wrong and the package writer's fault because they are not using the asynchronous api emacs provides for communicating with a process.
Worse, unsourced.
One of the most popular streamers on Twitch was streaming slot machines and blackjack today with tens of thousands of kids watching. I remember another popular streamer saying some anecdote about a 11 year old who watches that first streamer I mentioned saying all his friends have accounts on this gambling website too. But the stream title has "18+" in it so it's fine.

They get paid obscene money as well, millions or tens of millions a year to advertise gambling to teenagers.
>This is pretty much a self-perpetuating cycle and what happens when you have something close to a monopoly.

That's simply not true.
While having high market share does give you a short-term advantage, if a better alternative exists you'll bleed market share over time. Look at what happened to Netscape, then Internet Explorer, then Firefox. It'll happen to Chromium eventually too.

Open-source alternatives to popular desktop software packages have existed for decades, and the reason they haven't snatched market share away from the main packages is because they don't work well.
Notably, with Nix Flakes, everything managed by Nix gets automatically 100% precisely pinned to specific versions by hash.

> The cryptographic implications of QC are absurdly exaggerated.

Every(?) current TLS session is vulnerable. _Many many_ auth sessions of other types are vulnerable. At least petabytes of stored sessions can be decoded (though not all).

It's hard to say how it's exaggerated at all. It's pretty much the device from Sneakers, but real.

That it won't break every possible thing for all time is true, but it's still about as huge as any practical thing can be.
Do the benchmarks stress test those atomicity guarantees?

Get/set operations look like they don't need it.
This is excellent!

I see only throughput benchmarks. Redis is single threaded, beating it at latency would have been far more impressive.

Do you have latency benchmarks at peak throughput?
I just don't see "planned obsolescence" as a top-down directive.

Has any engineer come forward to say management told them to make specific changes to cause a thing to become obsolete in some period of time? I am not aware of any.

Rather what looks like planned obsolescence can generally be explained by other factors — not the least of which might just be the fickleness of consumers.
> ...not intended to be dissected...

Well, sure, "not intended" but that's what happens.

It's OK though. It's refreshing to see stuff like this. I admire that someone will still provide support for such old systems even if folks like me don't understand why.

There's some very compelling positives to something that can keep running for so long and which doesn't "phone home" to a corporate master because "its home" is where it is installed.
There are also other, novel things we could do to fight infectious diseases that get pretty much no traction. Far-range UVC lights immediately come to mind. These kill viruses and single-celled organisms quickly while not harming humans. Just imagine this installed in all public, closed spaces! Schools, offices, restaurants, public transit all could be heavily reduced in how well any infectious diseases gets spread there. Yet, this is almost entirely absent from public discourse.

"remote-work catastrophe?" it was heralded as saving the economy. Forced companies to get more productivity out of workers, but that shifted the balance of power and businesses want to have their thumb on people, so now it is a "danger to society as we know it." Good, most people had long commutes and it was completely without purpose other than coercion.
Their Cash Management Account is a brokerage account that mimics a checking account.

No monthly fees or account minimums. PNC issues their debit card. You can hold securities in the account if you want to, but are not required to. You can also overdraft using margin or other financial instruments if desired, but again, not required to.

True. Keydb tackled the same problems as us. But we chose differrent paths. We decided to go for a complete redesign, feeling that there is a critical mass of innovation out there that can be applied for inmemory store. KeyDb wanted to stay close with the source and be able to integrate quickly with recent developments in Redis. Both paths have their own pros and cons.

Wall Street newly accepting EBITDA (cash flows) over DTI or net income, as told in the link above about the cable utility, is logical in an environment of a rapidly expanding money supply driven by unencumbered Federal Reserve.

In the loose/free money era, financing cash flows with more and more debt is incentivized and in some respects the default mode of operation.

Growth over value.

Alternately, when the credit environment tightens, you see moves back to value and away from growth
> Also, I don't think that's true.

The best tools like uBlock, Umatrix, Privacy Badger, etc. all miss plenty of trackers, but not for a lack of trying. A complete solution doesn't exist today, nor is there anything promising on the horizon that I'm aware of. I am very curious to know the source of your optimism (I don't have much at the moment).

> They have an agreement with MS to not block 3rd party trackers, and they say "in any case it's very difficult to do and nobody else even tries to do it". It's a misdirection.

They shouldn't have done that to be sure, they've said as much, and are paying the price. They also said that future agreements won't include that carve out. They screwed up and will hopefully learn a valuable lesson from all this.

I will say, you should have used more precise language and said something like, "they have an agreement to not block 3rd party trackers in their browser" (emphasis mine). Your statement suggests that they don't block those sorts of things across their entire line of products, which isn't true. You're adding to the confusion by using overly broad language that is not precise and not 100% truly accurate.

Finally, I'm not aware of anything that is widely available that is as good privacy-wise as DDG and is actually usable by the most people. Until something exists that's just as good privacy-wise and is somewhat useful, I see very little choice but to use DDG. We'll see how DDG behaves in the coming months and years. Long term, they really should figure out something besides ads as a business model, since the incentives don't align with privacy.

PaaSs were always sort of a funny in-between category that were sort of defined by not being IaaS or SaaS--though I'm not sure the NIST definitions are super-useful at this point. As the article says, a PaaS like Heroku made it easy for developers to get going. OpenShift started as something similar (although polyglot) from the Makara acquisition. However, enterprises, by and large, found they were too limited.

I agree with the gist of the article that some subset of PaaS or would-be PaaS users went to serverless. And many others went to Kubernetes-based container platforms--whether on-prem, hosted on a cloud, or some cloud-native service like EKS.
Look into your local Credit Unions. They're (mostly) not big enough to make their own software and will have a SaaS.
I've used them for reference but haven't fully worked through them chapter by chapter.
I imagine they will increase road tax or electricity tax or income tax. I don't think it's exactly a dirty secret. It all goes in a big pot.

That will likely lead to much more than a doubling of key sizes; perhaps two orders of magnitude bigger. It will severely impact resource constrained cryptographic devices such as credit card chips.
