That's great for your dad. Thank you for also distinguishing between types of cancer and the nebulous term cancer, many people don't make the distinction.
Does everyone?
What you’re not understanding is that this game violates the players constitutional right to have legendary gems that are as good as their favorite YouTuber.

What are they supposed to do? Just pick away at rifts for free to build up their legendary gem count like secondary citizens? Are they supposed to ONLY use the crests from the battlepass as if this is some kind of subscription based game? What if they want to work tirelessly day and night to grind legendaries to make their character more powerful but don’t have as much money as the next guy? Shouldn’t the government step in?
Electric kettle uses the same footprint space as a stove kettle.
Tzatziki is great on eggplant (charred or otherwise), but I've never heard of eggplant being an ingredient in Tzatziki.

Maybe you're thinking of baba ganoush, which is a dip with a charred eggplant and tahini base. I've made it with eggplant broiled in the oven, and it's fine, but I'm sure the taste is different if they're charred over a flame. (Even though you discard the charred shell either way.) That said you could easily accomplish that with a kitchen torch, the kind also used to finish creme brulee or (if you have a big torch) sous vide meats.
People who get eye strain from computers: how bright do you keep your screen?

I keep mine low (10–20% brightness) and don't get eye strain, but I'm curious whether that's just me, or if others find high brightness is correlated with strain.
I Too, chose this guy's dead legislation.
Pay lots of money to spend more of your life dying
I think a big part the problem is that of you include a cash shop of some sort in your game, the incentive immediately shifts to maximize the grind as much as your players are likely to tolerate. The more you can successfully push this, the more money the time-saving items you sell will turn a profit.

So any game that includes this sort of transactional mechanic has a strong perverse incentive to waste your time.
China is a country that has been well well known for theft of intellectual property for a couple of decades now, and when the majority of the people developing the project live inside of the borders of China their state has an incredible ability to control the direction of the project and sneak in bad changes over time should they want to.

The fact that it's open source helps a little bit, but I do not believe they number of eyes on the project is enough that they couldn't sneak something through if they wanted to. This isn't Linux with worldwide attention, it's a relative niche.
googled first to get the correct spellings and all that, been on hacker news a long time...
I don’t like saying this, but the way solutions like this are presented makes me really uneasy.
I think it’s a laudable effort, and it’s noble that the authors want to reduce e-waste, but I feel like they should make really clear right at the outset that at least some of the features they take for granted are negated by this.

I’m thinking most specifically about the integrity and security guarantees around enclaves and official vendor patch support (i.e. the things most users wouldn’t realise were missing and could endanger them).
I would assume once this ships it’ll be able to update same as any other linux device (with security and feature patches), but the average user may not realise how much those updates were protecting them.

There’s also likely to be a very vulnerable gap between Linux and the hardware elements that will need to remain open because that’s what the exploit relied on in the first place (in this case, checkra1n, if I’m reading it correctly).
I’ll always remember that extremely hot summer when someone tweeted at the Central Line support twitter account about how bad it was, and got a cheery response that it’ll be sorted in “early 2030” when they get new trains with air conditioning.
It seems like every new communication channel follows the same basic pattern (phone, email, SMS, push notifications, ...). It starts with friend-to-friend communication, but quickly commercial entities realize there's an opportunity to connect with customers. They usually start with something small and helpful, but before long you're overrun with spam.

I'm counting the days until my flashlight app tells me I've won a free cruise.
No? The walled garden is a safeguard against malicious apps, not against marketing shenanigans.
Indeed. I'm personally not a victim of loot boxes and exploitative P2W tactics because I just don't buy them. But I just want to pay some amount once and have a good game in my Android phone, without ads and without constantly nagging me to spend more! I'll pay $60 also if the game is good, I just don't want to be put into a Skinner box constantly trying to milk my "engagement" and my pockets. Is that so much to ask?

Mind you, there are some games like that (my usual routine is to go to Google Play Games, navigate to the bottom, choose "no ads" and "no in-app purchases"), but it seems that they are like 1% of the total.

If you like a specific niche subgenre, a franchise, etc. it's very likely that all games you find will be of the exploitative variety.

It's sad that I have a pocket computer with an awesome screen in my hand the whole day, and other cool features like gyroscope, GPS, etc. that can be used for gaming; and I find myself going back to my good old PC (or lately, the Steam Deck) when I want to play.
Exactly... I was waiting for the happy ending and then I realized she has only been at the hunt for two weeks. Her spirit is great but you can tell that the ego needs to be worked on if she thought landing the perfect fit would happen so quickly after being out of the workforce for five years. I know people with glowing resumes that still take six months or more to get recruited into a role.
The subject of the article is about apps bundling time sensitive notifications that you can’t realistically disable with promotions.

You can turn off most notifications for a calmer life, but when you order an Uber you need to know if it’s arriving or if the driver sent you an important message.

Well, I'm attached to my cast iron (pan, griddle, casserole and more), and treating my cooking top roughly (I used to be a cook in a restaurant, there we used carbon steel, which is fine, but sort of a different beast, from cast iron) is just how I roll. So I guess induction is still off the table. Even resistive electric coils don't really handle things quite as well as a gas range with metal grates.
I think this only works when you are alone.
Once you miss a few important notifications from your friends/spouse/kids/parents, like "the place A was closed, we went to B", you'll want to reconsider.
No - the Piccadilly Line is just plain vanilla Underground, whereas the Heathrow Express line (which the Elizabeth Line is using) is a branch off the Great Western Main Line railway.
I disagree, the most enjoyable experience in Diablo 2 is probably during lvl 25-40 (/99), roughly corresponding to the acts 4 and 5 of the story of the first difficulty level and the 2nd difficulty level (out of 3).
>“So, the next step in terms of human health would be to examine this region in databases of human genes to see how much variation there is in normal people and whether some deletions or mutations in this region could lead to a lowered expression of sodium channels, which might result in disease.”

Actually, I think the next interesting step would be to look for a similar gene mutation in those humans who have claimed that street lights dim as they pass or that they are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.

Or even more cool - we could induce this genetic change in humans so that we all produce electric energy available on demand and then design clothing that allows us to harvest and use this energy. We would all be self-contained generators and accessing this power could be made as simple as using a silicone dongle that fits over your little finger or other convenient appendage with an adapter for any device on the other end. Fingertip chargers for your phones!

Imagine if you will an electric automobile that you own that can only be started when there is a driver in the seat who has connected the vehicle's electronics to their own body, authenticating themselves to the vehicle. You could lock a vehicle to a specific person while still enabling a valet mode that provides highly limited functionality to a non-authenticatable operator.

This vehicle needs no batteries since the power is supplied by the operator and as long as the operator is still alive and connected the vehicle can be driven.

I'm no electrical engineer or geneticist and I don't play one in my driveway but this seems like a great use case for gene-editing technology. Elimination of the need for batteries could stop a lot of environmental degradation from the mining and processing of ores. If we all could be self-contained powerpacks then there would be no need for batteries.

I wonder whether this means that a user would need to consume more calories to supply all that energy. That might strain food resources globally. Hmmmm, a lot to consider here.

Y'all are smart. I'm sure you'll identify all the hurdles to conquer and come up with some cool tech in the process. I'll work on more bullshit ideas.

I never got much into mobile gaming, but have recently been having a lot of fun playing PC or console games on my phone (using a controller) with streaming services. I've played with both Geforce Now and Xbox Game Pass and (at home on my decent cable internet connection) it's working really nicely. I also have the Nvidia shield, so when I do want to game on the TV I can pick up where I left off very easily.

If you're looking for a game to play on your commute it's probably not going to work, but for at home on the couch it's great.
Horrible, especially given the circumstances he is in and how his legacy was taken away from him. I hope he manages to solve it and get his account and videos back.
To the list of Zachtronics games, I'll add Opus Magnum, which is the one that I found most rewarding.
Anything that Ken Shirriff writes (http://www.righto.com/) is excellent. He's a UC Berkeley EE/CS PhD who likes to restore and reverse engineer interesting hardware. His writing is so clear.

(minor disclosure - I worked in the CS department at UCB when he was a PhD
student but I didn't really know him, and I strongly doubt he remembers me.)
It's not so much about the issues, but the potential for issues down the line.

For tools like this the aim is always to lay low and expand to reach as far as possible, then once you have a lot of control and trust you can abuse it, often you can abuse it without much loss, because once you have institutional momentum it's very hard to screw it up.

You can't operate on If there's a history of abuse of power, only if there is an incentive. I believe there's a very strong incentive in this case.
If you're going to complain about the way a question was asked, I think you should at least try to answer the question as though it were phrased in a better way. Otherwise people might be forgiven for assuming you don't actually know the answer and are complaining about phrasing/tone to mask your inability to actually answer what the asker was getting at.
If you have 4 dots on a photo or different photos and you want to find out if they belong to the same object (shot at different times) and find orbit of that object, it's trivial to do it. You find centroids of them using opencv, then recognise the plate using the like of www.astrometry.net to build WCS and convert (x,y) coordinates into (Ra, Dec) coordinates, and then you can run orbit determination code and check if resulting orbit is sane (that is, is within certain boundaries of "possible" asteroid orbits). If these are just random dots that don't belong to the same object, or some of them are noise/false detections (like hot pixel, meteor, or similar), the orbit will be invalid/impossible.

Trick is now, how to put together these possible groups of 4 for detection. Because they say they have 68 billion observations, certainly combining each to each 4 times is not possible. There must be some heuristic and/or trick to it.
Same here, have turned off all app notifications. Email set to only notify for a short list of about 10-15 people who I regularly communicate with.
The article is 5 days olds. See also "Elon Musk Tesla email: Remote work is no longer acceptable" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31577268 (400 comments)

Two days later "Tesla to Cut 10% of Jobs" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31607248 (600 comments) most seem to think that's the real reason why the first statement was made.
Every time I listen to "The Chronic" by Dr Dre I'm reminded of how impressed I was by the "AOHell" installer. It was the perfect mix of BBS/demoscene culture and an introduction to larger online communities of hackers.

Seeing a a middle school question as "tricky" it's a bit worrying.
This is when you email the company's head of marketing and/or security expressing naive concern about hacking/phishing. "I received an email that looked like it's from your company, but I know it's not real because I didn't sign up for any of your lists."
Ah of course, Heathrow Express is another line - makes sense!
The advantage of FISH over lrzsz is that you don't need to install anything extra on the SSH endpoint. Just ssh and a shell is enough.
I wish iOS had some "allow notifications from this app for x minutes" option similar to "share location once".

Uber is a good example of an app I would like to see notifications from, when using their service, but disabled them completely.

Uber abuses this feature to show ad banners for scooters or food when I am not using their app and it's not even open (as in not present on the open applications list).

No but some men would have more than two children, and some men would have zero.

We balanced this out up until recently by sending men to war and other dangerous jobs that made them die before they had a chance to reproduce.

There is an enormous asymmetry between the sexes in our biology and that's the feature that drives natural selection and evolution.

The only reason why all people are able to reproduce are subsidies, otherwise natural selection would reject a lot.

> No one will go and set up a brand new 90nm fab

Not 90nm, but a 28nm fab still looks quite viable, as AFAIK, its cost per transistor is still lower than the top of the line ones.

Anyway, the reason nobody is investing is because everybody expects the problem to go away by itself in a year or two, and if they invest now, they will start production just in time to get destroyed by the opposite phase of the whiplash effect.
You're absolutely right - a total brain fart, I was thinking of the risk of an Aphophis style collision [0], but this would not be existential at all.

I ban an app from ever sending me any notification the moment it sends me an unwelcome one. But it sounds like this is not an option for some apps other people use.
The solution isn’t more of whatever we are doing now. We may have the worst behaved children in the entire world.
Any school thats dumb enough to do this is going to have drones hacked and pointed at students or teachers
iOS feature request: only allow notifications for apps I used in the last 24h.

Construction of Solar and wind farms amounts to pouring the exact same concrete foundation over and over and installing equipment manufactured elsewhere. It is so simple in comparison.

A non-parent can also raise a child for 1 year and get 1 year of compensation.
Except they later screwed it up by adding plant and zombie level ups. And you can't even play the old version any more ! That's another issue with those "pay not to grind" games...
This comment makes me sad.

Primarily because you are correct.

I think a nice addition at the bottom would be the addendum, "if the goal is maximise profit at all costs and there is no regard for their customer-base beyond how effectively they can be exploited."
That's not the problem, that's the reason almost all medical development happens in America.

Rich people from all around the world travel to American hospitals if they have serious health problems, not to public hospitals even in rich countries like Norway. Public healthcare works (poorly) as a way to distribute existing treatment, but is worthless at incentivizing development. Really, the entire world is unfairly parasitizing on Americans to fund medical research.
K&R is a book I carried around with me for years & years, until finally I had it memorized.

Better yet, Apple sends me news notifications for apple news that you have to pay for....
Who the fuck thinks its a good idea to send you notifications blocked behind a paywall... cant even comprehend the logic in the microtransaction, pay to win, notifications, paywall bullshit we see in mobile, tech, gaming, etc.
I have had enough. Literally just deleted all that stuff. All i need is VScode and youtube.

I have a wireguard with the server running on a small VPS, which is useful for both ignoring filtering on public wifi and getting into my home network from wherever.
Mt3 for me has a really good angle, expecially having small hands..but the top profile ( the side of the O on the keycap ) of the cap is too sharp and tiring after some time.
I guess extrapolation is quite simple: just pitch black
I absolutely love Matt3o's aesthetics. Every couple of months, my bleached /dev/tty mt3 kit spends a few days on my board as I try to convince myself that I'm finally getting used to it, that it's all about to 'click'.

It's been a couple of years now though, and it's just not happened. Just like XDA or ASA, and most likely the LDSA set due in August, the 'sweet spot' is just too small for me. Maybe it's because a lifetime of Cherry/OEM profile caps have ruined me, but the 'lip' along the top and bottom of the key - a feature of all the aforementioned spherical cap profiles - does nothing but disorient me when I hit a key even slightly off vertical centre.

I'm not giving up though, they look and feel too amazing. Maybe next month I guess.
I deliberately do not run Fail2Ban so that attackers waste their resources on my server. Before I turned off logging due to GDPR, I got 40M failed login attempts per month.
Apple kept a notification badge on my settings icon for Apple Pay until I finally went in and opted out of it. Under the guise of “Finish setting up your iPhone”.

It’s not a big deal I guess, but annoying and obviously promotional. Now I partially associate Apple with intentionally annoying.

Perhaps I need to play to understand, but it sounds like “gacha” machines behave like in-game vending machines where the player can purchase "features" to enhance their avatar etc.? Or do I have that wrong? I just assumed that those “gacha” machines are code libraries in gaming engines (Unity, Godot, GameMaker: Studio, etc), and that maybe a “gacha” machine code library is available open source or in some other fashion.
Thank you so much for reading my blog and for asking all these questions. I am very grateful for everyone's interest + support!

I do not have specific requirements. I am flexible in terms of hours/week etc.

I am looking on entering a career that utilizes my strong Computer Science + Analytical skills and a career that allows me to develop/ use my content creation skills/ passion, networking, events, communication, digital marketing etc. I am not sure what is the right role for me.

So far, I look into content creator jobs, digital marketing/sales, business advocacy, and more!

I am eager to learn and grow, so I would be incredibly happy with trainee/ internships/ apprenticeships/ return to work programs!!!

Again thank you so much for asking me, it's so supportitive!
Sociocracy decision making uses my favorite question of all times:

Is this good enough for now and safe enough to try?
Is there a definition for the "NOC" acronym that the author uses throughout? I can't see one, and it's not immediately clear from context to me.
My rule is: if I get a single notification that I find useless, I'll immediately disable that notification channel (I'm on Android; I'm not sure if iOS has a concept of channel-specific settings) for that app. Even if the channel can include useful notifications, as the article discusses.

If the app doesn't bother to categorize its notifications into channels at all, I turn off its notifications entirely, and I won't turn it back on.

If something is important enough, I can always manually check on it. My attention is too valuable to me to waste it on useless notifications.

I do want more control over my notifications in general. I use Google Apps Script to automatically process/triage my email, and I want to do something similar with notifications. I can probably do so using Tasker, but I haven't gotten around to it.
Last time I checked, doing things like that seemed forbidden by Playdate's SDK license. Did it change already?

I don't agree with that. However, his assertion that hard work can only be done at the office is not based in reality.
I agree that people can do what they want. But I can't help but wish people did not do this.

I don't think anyone honestly believes that children are not better off by having more balanced input from both parents where possible. And the more people that do this (where the working parent is a workaholic) the more difficult it makes things for working parents who want to have a more balanced home life.

This is similar to the modern issue of dual income families. In the area where I live, homes are very expensive. The majority of home owners here could simply not afford a home without both parents working.

Which means if there weren't so many dual income families, homes would simply have to become cheaper here. The fact that many families here are dual income puts financial pressure on everyone else to do the same.
Faking AOL is what started my interest in hacking with the absurd pricing of internet access in germany at the time.
Granted I don't live in an urban area and so don't use these apps all the much, but typically when I want an Uber or to order something with Doordash, or whatever, I'll install the app only long enough to use the service, and then uninstall it. And my rule for apps that stay on my phone (and there are not many) is that they get one chance. The first promotion notification I get, either all notifications get disabled or the app gets uninstalled.
Oh I bet plenty of engineers knew the estimates weren't right. I've seen cases where people don't point this out to management because they expect if they do management would just put htem under more pressure rather than getting the timeline right.
