>Maybe the parent post was edited since, but your response seems entirely disproportionate here.

Maybe it was, I don't know. What law in PA requires a proportionate response?

If you don't like the laws of PA, register to vote and work to change them.

>Running old proprietary software which connects to untrusted servers in a secure environment like a VM is very good advice.

Yes, but the problem is most people don't know how to do that, so it's not useful to the types of people who have the freedom and time to experiment... the newbies... who are often quite young.

>Saying you shouldn't do it because hacking is a crime is even worse than saying you shouldn't lock your doors because stealing is a crime.

There's a difference between "lock your doors" and "lock your doors, get bars on your windows, set up an alarm, live on the third floor with no elevator, and keep a phone and a weapon next to a bed behindn a locked door" (which seems to be the level of "reasonable" security some folks here seem to want, to draw analogies from the physical world.

>Good luck beating up a 12 year old script kiddie stealing your e-banking creds through a Tor reverse shell you aren't even aware is installed on your computer because you ran what is essentially a web browser from before sandboxing was invented on your primary computer.

I'll just get a new credit card number or report the ach as fraudulent. I have MFA on my bank accounts plus code words. (I changed to a different one for each entity after a tour Dachau.)

It sounds like in the scenario you describe, we should give that 12 year old a job, rather than invent ever creative ways to punish them for not wanting to be a low level minimum wage customer service representative because from ages 12 to 18ish they responded to adults like an adult would, while they weren't thankful the kid only acted out electronically in cheeky, playful ways.
Quite contrary. She provides much insight into the issue and all these points are worth consideration and discussion.

Western politician try to project their view of the word on the other party and fail to see the issue from other point of view.

People who have more intimate knowledge about Russia, for example Finns (1), can provide much more valuable insight. Especially so Russians with even more intimate knowledge about Russia.

Before I became the "respectable pillar of professional society" I am today, I was a smart-mouthed kid with a major anti-authority streak (that I retain to a lesser extent to this day). I think it was an essential part of my personal development. I shudder to think about how similar kids will be treated today, since they're definitely going to turn these on unruly students if deployed. Will they effectively stop mass shooters? I have my doubts, but they'll certainly make kids terrified to fuck up at school.
Maximising profits is literally the entire goal of corporations. Why would that be surprising?
MT3 really is a nice key profile. The only caveat is that because the keys are so tall, it may not work nicely on taller boards… I have at least one board like that.

“Hugging” your fingertips is a good way to describe what using them feels like. It’s particularly prominent on the PBT dyesub sets (like /dev/tty), which have a slightly deeper scoop and more matte texture than the ABS doubleshot MT3 sets (such as Susuwatari).

Probably my favorite MT3 set out of those I own is biip’s Extended 2048[0], which is a fun lightly modernized take on Apple’s keyboards from the late 80s through early 2000s, which used the Univers Condensed Oblique[1] typeface.

I can only speak for the unwashed masses who write, debug and test code…. If you don’t trust your people to deliver what they are supposed to deliver, why did you hire them? Why do you keep non-performers?

On the other hand, if you can’t determine whether such people are delivering on their commitments and whether projects are advancing properly, why do they hire or keep you?

I can see brainstorming when starting out on a product or application. Once it’s done, the best environment is to get out of the way and let people implement the design. If you’re brainstorming every week or less, you don’t know what you’re trying to do and the code’s going to be crap.

I am surprised the wiki does not have zmodem in the see also section. On Linux or Mac one can install lrzsz [1] to do file transfers in the shell/terminal. This is handy if file permissions would make ssh/rsync less practical. Some financial orgs may not be happy with lrzsz being used as file transfers may not be logged or restricted.

If using tmux or gnu screen one may have to make changes to the RC file for lrzsz to function correctly.

Not denying your experience, just curious about the consequences of stuff like go-macaron.

>I take it you must be aware that the threat of a felony means next to nothing when it comes to computer hacking, right?

I literally just warned you that's not the case. Even if the FBI doesn't prosecute, you can respond physically[0], but I was more speaking in the context of someone hacking wifi, where they're in close physical proximity, not the other parent's example of a remote attack.

(That's why you hack... because you can do it remotely.)

For context, I had a neighbor literally hack a speaker I was using to do personal, private calls, protected by PA's 2 party consent state.

I don't like when people invade my privacy, repeatedly, then do a shocked Pikachu[1] when the result is to respond like an Appalachian with multiple degrees and ten years of policy experience paired with the skills of a woodsman trained by the Boy Scouts just before they went bankrupt.

Why not just pay for it? I understand being annoyed by the free product in its regular use cases, but wanting the free version of the app to give you a flawless experience from something as specific as playing white noise during the night evokes something in me that I cannot really put a word on.
I’m surprised Spotify doesn’t have home grown white noise sounds, and then pushes people to those “songs”, makes them short with 0s hapless playback, and then pays itself rather than a music label.

Ask HN: What's your strategy for reading dense books with too much information?
I'm reading The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York, which isn't my first super-dense biography, but it got me thinking once again about reading strategies.

The book has an infinite wealth of details, down to specific dates on which a relative of the main subject said or did something - information I don't need and can readily forget.

But it makes me stop and wonder why I'm spending time reading it in the first place. I feel like I need to be careful in how I read something like this, lest the time just be wasted altogether on the forgettable minutiae of history.

What's your strategy for reading similar books, such that you take something away from it but don't waste time on information you'll immediately forget?
Couldn't read the article but yea, if it's a small molecule, most likely it's inhibiting some protein specific to cancerous cells. In this case, it sounds like it's blocking some protein that blocks human cells' innate ability to produce antigens, which signal to T-cells that they are defective and need to be destroyed.

Sometimes we understand the biology after we discover a treatment.
I hate this question because it has an implicit bias that most likely the interviewer never saw. It's biased towards people who have ridden on a ski lift, which generally means someone wealthier.

If you're a poor kid who's never been skiing, you'll have a harder time conceptualizing the answer.
Well, first of all, attempted self-driving stuff isn’t Tesla’s product; many of those people are working on the infotainment thing or the fart app or the website or whatever. But also, many, often most people in any large tech company don’t work directly on the product; they work on infrastructure.
Has there been any issues because of that, or is this just speculation on your part? The codebase is open source so it's not like they can hide anything.

US junk mail volume is something in the 6 million ton range, and paper production releases 3-10 pounds of CO2 / pound of paper, depending on whether it is virgin or recycled.

(Regoogling that second figure returns some ranges as low as 1-2 lb/lb, which would put junk mail at like 0.2-0.4 crypto.)

Isn’t the standard model that chemical complexes of increasing sophistication formed around volcanic vents until the molecules involved looked like viroids or other ribozymes?

Then there’s an evolutionary fork, where the RNA moves towards DNA for storage and proteins for work, but the relationship remains mediated by RNA, eg in mitochondria.

I used to teach C Programming using the Power C compiler at a local community college. It was a nice enough compiler that the students then owned so that they could continue to experiment and learn.

I found a couple of things to not ring true in what I'd read about the compiler, though. There were issues around a lack of error messages when students would send incorrect parameters to a function. If I remember correctly, I think that one could transpose the arguments in a call to fprintf() so that the FILE * reference was not the first parameter. A few of my students put a format string at the front, a few parameters, and then the FILE *. I believe that the version of Power C that we were using did not flag this as invalid. I question the ANSI compliance claim because of this and a couple other odd issues.

The other thing that didn't really ring true was the often-quoted line about loving the book and throwing away the compiler. Really, the book wasn't that great, in my opinion.

I do believe that one received more than their $20 worth of value from the offering, though. It was a nice enough compiler with a decent book.
Most junk mails don't bother me. A lot of them are just neighborhood businesses. But, some are clearly mistakes. Such as my own credit card company keep inviting me to apply for a card I already have.

I also think the bulk mail rate should be higher so businesses will be more careful when doing direct mails.
How do those Docker-based CI systems support Windows and Mac builders? Aren't you constrained to just Linux? Seems like quite a crippling constraint in a huge number of situations.
> What’s stopping a bunch of small manufacturers from pooling together their capital to buy an upstream supplier?

Texas Instruments is worth ~160 billion dollars, ST Micro ~38 billion dollars. Even at Elon Musk level of wealth, that is unobtainable.

To make stuff worse, all the stuff in short supply (anything from power regulators to not-top-of-the-line SoCs) is made on "outdated" nodes. No one will go and set up a brand new 90nm fab (which is the node size of most current STM32 models), it's just not worth the expense without massive government subsidies.
How about this: what I claimed has absolutely nothing to do with a private language, but with the changing of the shared meaning of words over time.
There’s nothing arrogant in my comment. Like I said, Gitea is good. Like all other software, iterations improve quality, and I’m just saying it’s time for the next iteration. I probably would have written Gitea the exact same way if I were in the developers’ shoes, but that doesn’t mean a rewrite wouldn’t still be in order.

As for the so what, I think the answer is just that things can be better, so if someone is out there reading this thread who has some time, they can see this and know what kind of improvements can be made.
tl;dr: it's called Medium for a reason. The content is neither rare nor well done.

By contrast, I’ve had a couple of online assessments with Microsoft this past year and the problems were a lot harder (design a simple word processor with copy/paste, undo, etc, and the other was something about optimal scheduling of some finite resource)

In the near future, I think we will think about indoor air quality (VOCs, PM2.5, High CO2) in the same way we think about smoking.
Sure, but I think the bigger problem is complete systems. Look at a usual Linux box. It has a bunch of files, all with their custom syntax, and you parse them with error-prone shell commands. If everything used json, everyone's lives would've been so much better.

Independent programs using json is a step in the right direction though.
