As a developer, I am putting my eggs in the PWA basket[0]. I fully maintain my native versions, but actively work on achieving parity on the PWA front. The complexity is definitely not greater than developing native.

It feels a lot safer to develop a PWA than a native app. Developing native apps subjects you to the arbitrary fancies of Apple and Google. And even worse, your life depends on them. For all we know they might crash tomorrow and then what? Developing a PWA frees you from these worries. I am not a developer to make a quick buck, or to go public. I care about the things I make. I want them to live forever and be sustainable. Buying into the "web toolchain" is a lot safer than buying into the latest native fad pushed by a tech giant that owns the platform and only cares about profits. I have come to terms with this. One day, I will only have a PWA version. Don't know when. It's my conclusion of many years

From a practical standpoint, do you turn a light on? Do you write on your lap? Do you have a side table?

I've wanted to write my dreams down but not sure how to do it without bothering my partner in the middle of the night.
But there's so few of those academic jobs. Plenty of kids have the curiosity but won't want to take part in the tenure race.

Emmanuel Derman wrote about the mass of PhDs in the 1980s who went into finance. This will just keep happening.

Plus you don't need to get a PhD at all to be one of those guys who solves problems.
Because many recruiters use automated tools to filter candidates. These tools use your github profile statistics to see how "active" you have been, regardless of the content of your projects. You would think it makes sense to build actual projects, but who has time on projects when they are working 8am to 6pm plus 2 hour commute every day? This is why people fake their github profiles to pass recruiters.
>If 15% of 9th graders go on to become programmers, scientists, actuaries, etc (where maybe 40% (at best) of these use calc, probability, linear algebra, etc.), then at least 85% of 9th graders are talking math that they will never use.

Except to understand the context of the work those people do, which touches most of everyday life.
I've worked in paywall industry previously and microtransactions never work out due to the fact that for the newspaper it's not a predictable source of income that you need to manage your budget as an organization. It doesn't build loyal subscriber bases.

The other issue is that this only promotes click-bait journalism. If you want investigative journalism the newspaper needs to invest and they need to invest before the revenue happens. How can you afford that without a predictable revenue stream.
It might be, but it's also possible that the larger body of context or knowledge is flawed in some way. Not so much the core physics of CO2 but the scalings of things. For instance some climatologists believe that natural cycles dominate anything done by humans. That isn't something you can prove or disprove from simply looking at a graph of CO2 and temperature together.
As someone who spend thousands of EUR on MtG in my youth and who's wife had a father who was an alcoholic I'd like to disagree with 'I don't need the government to try to "protect me" from this.' USA is also currently in an opioid crisis.

This is both P2W and gambling, and its the combination which is the issue. RNG alone isn't an issue. Also, it is aimed at youth, who not yet can deal with gambling. How come a country where you may drive at age 16 and drink at age 21 doesn't care about digital gambling via the internet?

The argument is the same about other things like heroin, gambling, LSD, etc. The law is there to protect the people. If you want to break the law, then you are on your own, with all the repercussions which may come with it including: that your Battle.net account gets disabled/banned, that Blizzard or the player gets a fine, that you become addicted, that you have to pretend you are from another jurisdiction in order to play it, that you move to a different jurisdiction, or vote for different politicians in your jurisdiction. There's plenty of options for you to influence the current outcome.

> If people chose to not play them then they wouldn't monetize games like this, but it's pretty apparent that people are okay with this.

No, it is not "pretty apparent". Stop projecting.

> You want to use force via the government to stop those people from doing something they want to do and using "it's for your own good" as an excuse.

Yes, such is the basis of law.

> Games will absolutely shut out countries where they feel that handing regulation is too much for them. This will include games that don't conflict with the regulation, but it's simply too risky to figure out whether they do or not.

That's fine, I'm not missing out, hopefully more countries follow suit and may it provide incentive to change this rotten to the core industry.
I don't recognize your observation.

It might be that the validity of the particular criticisms vary..

Tesla and Apple do bad stuff (lots of companies do) and they also do great stuff..
And the idea of this is that it is time/need release, so you don't have to inject it as frequently and you don't have to keep testing?

Assuming you cannot afford it, can you just get 'normal' insulin instead?

Sorry to pepper you with Questions :)
What do you do? IMHO, only person naive here is you.

People should be happy, that there are still white-hats who're reporting exploits, even for no profit. I personally switched to gray-market, can't take the shit we get from companies, anymore.

This tool released publicly is only to bring an awareness to the topic. Everybody else who needed to exploit this, have these tools developed in private.
Youtube has higher quality and lower bit rates than Twitch.

Maybe due to saving computing-resources used for transcoding?
They're doing their best to kill it. Last time I checked, they stopped honoring the setting that used to allow you to permanently switch views. Now they always use the default slow view unless you use a specific URL.
I sometimes have the feeling that people read too much in this kind of things.
>> Then again, is this really all that different to the many human-driven blind spots science has had in the past?

Yes, because humans can build models that are explanatory as well as predictive, and so can, eventually, get over blind spots. See for example the theory of epicycles and how it was eventually superseded by Kepler's laws and Newton's.

The danger with deep learning for science is that we will again be stuck in a rut, relying on (what we think are) good predictive models without explanatory power. In the case of astronomy and the theory of epicycles, the rut lasted more than a thousand years.

That is a terrifying thought, considering the mess we currently find ourselves in and the urgent need for true scientific understanding of the world, before we destroy it.
I would be looking out during the interview if that person takes credit but doesn’t do the work, talks a good game but no delivery, blames others when their work is examined closely and finally not doing their work to a high level when it’s not getting closely validated

Maybe it’s some kind of arms race against companies expecting massive side projects but there is an element of if I can get away with it more $$ to me
It's ridiculous. This is their reason for not having a calculator app:

> “There’s some things that we have not done because we would want to do something really distinctly great in that space,” the Apple VP explained. “We want to do it when we can do it really, really well. And we honestly just haven’t gotten around to doing it great.”

Wtf. The UX of a calculator doesn't need to be reinvented. I just need a freaking calculator on my device that I can use. I'd rather have something.
There is a procedure for recovering access to the E2EE data in the event that you no longer have access to any of your Apple devices.

But do they talk about that expensive form of brand insulin the article is taking about?
Indeed, but the SRV resords spec states that they shouldn't be used where the protocol in question doesn't specify their use:

"In general, it is expected that SRV records will be used by clients for applications where the relevant protocol specification indicates that clients should use the SRV record. Such specification MUST define the symbolic name to be used in the Service field of the SRV record as described below. It also MUST include security considerations. Service SRV records SHOULD NOT be used in the absence of such specification."

DialMe – Brand-new phone number without purchasing hassle
Same here, but using a late 2010 MBA.
DialMe can provide a web platform to receive texts from brand-new SIM cards for different purposes such as opening a Tinder account. We're open for suggesting to understand which way we should pivot this idea.
If you look at the last 20 years, then the current $100/barrel seems to be the "new normal" ? (Up from ~$25/barrel for the 2nd half of the 20th century.)

Now, currently it's more the lack of refining capacity that seems to be pushing fuel prices up, the crack spread is up to $50/barrel !!
The article mentions that many of its examples were conditional. This is another example. Limited for sure, but by age rather than luck, programme attendance, tribal affiliation, income, region etc, which those in the article were.

The article had a pretty loose definition of ‘universal’.
Ask HN: Did You Go to Camp
I think there might be a relevance here... Curious - how many HNers went to/or sent their kids to Camp?

Ncdu is a disk usage analyzer with an ncurses interface. It is designed to find space hogs on a remote server where you don’t have an entire graphical setup available, but it is a useful tool even on regular desktop systems. Ncdu aims to be fast, simple and easy to use, and should be able to run in any minimal POSIX-like environment with ncurses installed.
Thank you for a considered response. I share those feelings.

I just hope the person offering AMA will not be daunted by a good but blunt question from a voice that carries weight around here.
> It’s utterly insane how we’re essentially subsidizing drug development for the entire world.

I'd say US should get over their lurking savior syndrome.
To all people who ask moral side of this tech and that it can be abused. What do you think about tools like Kali Linux? NMAP?

Basically any pentesting software can be abused.
The set of games includes Shining Force CD and Sonic CD. IMHO worth it for those two titles alone
Why would they cannibalize the sales of their Macbooks by making iPads more capable?
Which requires more computation: a real-time deepfake or real-time deepfake detection? That will determine the future balance of power.

They do, and an earlier version of my post mentioned that but I edited it down.

However, FIDO mode does not speak the keyboard sub-protocol. This means on the one hand it's not useable out of the box with some random device that allows USB keyboard input like the custom Yubico OTP mode is, but on the other hand it's able to deliver a good UX while having excellent security properties that would not be practical using keyboard emulation.
you just defined how memory work, you are welcome :)
But these incremental updates tell a very compelling story to me looking at it holistically, and from a customer/user point of view.

That's the thing about competition -- it just sneaks up on you, and the firms that are just slowly making really good incremental updates win over the long run. It's little by little, then all at once.

For example, being able to clip your iPhone to your monitor, and get two camera feeds at once. This looks kind of silly and like a gimmick, but this is going to shake up the live streaming space a little bit.

People have been mucking with buying DSLRs, setting up software, getting a second overhead camera, making sure things don't overheat. If they do this right, that's all over, and now more and more people are going to be using the iPhone (they probably already have) along with maybe an external monitor.

At some point, a nerd will implement the pairing and use-as-camera ease (if it isn't already possible) on windows/linux, and it will get even easier.

Another thing towards the end -- apple dipping it's toes into collaboration, and building it into the platform and across apps. Google is definitely reaching a lot of people with Chromebooks and building itself a platform, but Apple's UX and focus on being buttery smooth/sacrificing customization for widespread usability feels like it's going to win.

Is Apple search inevitable? Isn't it basically already here? Every search that someone does from Spotlight is that much closer to being one less search that Google can see/monetize.
Government finances don't work the same way as other finances. A normally functioning democracy can basically invent as much money as it needs to (see Covid relief packages). If there's political will to do an LHC++, three ITERs and two ISS's, the money will appear. If there's opposition to the LHC++ and it gets scrapped, that doesn't mean that the funds will be re-allocated. They will just disappear.
I've been in that position, which is one of the reasons why I'm asking. When I came up with 'live streaming video on the www' I never for one second sat down to think about the abuse potential. Color me hopelessly naive. And when confronted with the various abuses over the years I've always had a problem with that, this was the direct consequence of me just 'scratching my itch' and it caused a huge amount of misery. Oh, say the defenders, but if you had not done it then somebody else would have. This is true, but then that moral weight would be on their shoulders and not on mine.

Hence my question. Because I do feel that weight and it has caused me to carefully consider the abuse potential of the stuff that I've released since then and I've only released those things that I feel have none that I can (easily) discern.
A sat = the 100 millionth part of a Bitcoin. Also, a sat can be further divided into millisats (1000 millisats = 1 sat) on the Lightnig Network. So, essentially, very very tiny amounts that can be sent very fast at at very small costs.

> One of the huge advantages of Maud is that it keeps code and markup close together

I'd say it's actually a disadvantage. Front end engineers will work with HTML with embedded logic (as little as possible - values, iterators, conditionals). Generating HTML from Rust code is nice for simple things, but won't work with complicated HTML templates when those are required and will be harder to integrate with front-end applications. It's possible to compile a template with embedded logic (Java Server Pages did that in the late 1990's) to performant and type safe code. An approach like that would be great for Rust (someone must have done it by now)
You don't need to detect a deepfake in the same time as it takes to generate one, do you?
The real plans recognize numerous cheap forms of storage are already well known, and will be built out after there is something to charge them from other than burning carbon.

Efficiency has become much less important than capital cost because solar and wind have become so cheap.
The GP is referring to Germany's counterpart to the US' eminent domain, I think: if the state lays a claim on your land, you are bound to comply.

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enteignung#Wiedervereinigtes_D... (third paragraph):

Since 2009 there have been 1647 procedures initiated in the Bundesrepublik for expropriation of landownership for road construction projects. As of August 2020, 448 of these procedures have been completed. Paragraph 19 of the Federal Funeral Street Act allows expropriations, "insofar as they are necessary for the execution of a determined or approved construction project" and are in accordance with Article 14 of the Basic Law for the benefit of the general public.

The app update will likely be included with iOS 16.

I doubt that. They've probably been working on international support. DarkSky's original API primarily used NOAA data, which would explain why it's not as accurate outside of the U.S. if it still uses that

This old blog post from one of the creators discusses it: https://jackadam.github.io/2011/how-dark-sky-works/
I used to work on secure communications software, and I've often wondered if many more criminals than oppressed people were using it.

In the end, I decided that one oppressed person using it to improve their situation is morally "worth" many criminals using it. It's kind of like "better ten guilty men go free than put one innocent man behind bars".
Four day work weeks sound good but since being remote from 2019 I could never go back to working in an office.

> and of course with each new successful drug, the next one becomes progressively more difficult to find

citation needed

> as regulators become ever-more conservative

... cough

the simple problem is that the drugs that work very well are hard (eg. personalized gene therapy) and there whole healthy-industrial complex is not set up to solve hard problems, it's set up to sell treatments to the market, keep the machine churning, buy promising new formulas from small research labs, do the larger trials, manage the FDA, market the shit out of those that make the cut, rework formulas to keep generics at bay, and so on.

the other trivial problem is that no one wants to confront basic problems affecting health. (obesity comes to mind. nutritional studies are so underpowered it's laughable. also let's say mental health. tinkering with the brain always has the nasty side effect of oh what if the drug accidentally makes you feel funny/good instead of just not-miserable - see the weak results of the esketamine, also see how psychiatrists are afraid to use desoxyn [meth], because oh the paperwork & peer pressure.)

note, I'm not saying that the current setup does not deliver results, and that your predictions are without merit. (they are realistic.) what I'm trying to make explicit is that the industry is already ripe for structural reform. (the easiest no-brainer would be to simply fast track drugs already approved by the EU EMA; tax waste spending [spending that is not R&D or manufacturing - eg. marketing/sales]; make the FDA approval process a lot more standardized and faster; start running publicly funded trials on drugs that are already prescribed by doctors but are not authorized to be marketed)
Spot on, and given that there seem to be no real guidelines for any of this beyond 'responsible disclosure' the question for me is whether we are accelerating the arms race with all these neat point-and-click tools.
That's the cause of the title inflation

But it doesn't mean it's not title inflation just because there's a reason for it
I never owned a car (only use trains + bicycles), I’m on a renewable electricity plan, and I’m vegetarian (and being selective with the farms I buy my eggs and milk from).

It’s not “living in caves”, in fact, it’s not any different from the life of anyone else. It’s only a handful of tiny changes and suddenly your climate impact is massively reduced.
Who gets to decide anything? We might as well not speak at all, lest we share spme opinion that's counter to what some other person believes - and some people will believe anything, even that the earth is flat or that crocs are stylish.

Back in real life, however, a Python programming environment limited to "just what it offers in the box" might make some "happy", but it's very easy to argue that it's not serious.
If you can up your rate, why wouldn’t you do it in any case?
Please check my reasoning; I don't want hardware keys doing FIDO or something because:

- would have to have 2 or 3, in case of loss

- would have to register each key separately to each account

- when traveling, probably would have just 1 key with me, so if I lose it, I'm totally locked out until I can get home and get to a backup key

- even at home, if I lose a key, backup key should be somewhere safe off-site, so getting it would be a bit of a pain/delay

A hardware key just typing passwords or displaying 6-digit TOTP would be different. But not as secure as FIDO.

So, I think I'd like to have software TOTP everywhere. Vulnerable to phishing, and not a "something you have" second factor. But seems a good tradeoff of security/convenience/resilience for me.
1. "nobody cares" - you realize that your statement is wrong if there is at least one person that cares. And there is at least one: Jack Dorsey, definitely not a speculator or a fraud.

2. Bitcoin != "cryprocurrencies" - which is why I didn't include Elon Musk under 1.

And? Since they're on the public suffix list, they might as well be issuing domains. Subdomains work differently in a browser compared to a domain and since the eu.org stuff is handled as domain by browsers I see no issue describing it as such.

If you were explaining the world to an alien, it would be hard to justify the lack of diversity in working arrangements. I applaud any such non standard option in the labor market - may your office be full of good fits!
My projects have no front-end engineer, however. The frontend is written in Rust as well and also uses Maud for HTML templating.

And I dispute it not working with complicated HTML templates, that's handling it fine and integrates very well since I share code between frontend and backend anyway.
So, onomatopoeia for the UI?
I think this is the mistake a lot of people make: they form an intuition of monads after seeing lots of examples of them, and then they try to communicate that intuition without just saying "here are lots of examples of monads".

Didn't CERN and LHC had big contribution already related to magnets(though maybe LHC designers don't directly apply to fusion needs) ? There are projects related to fusion too but I am expecting that people agreeing to this article will also want to remove the funding for fusion and invest it in electric cars and solar panels or his pet project.
I love a three-day weekend as much as the next guy, but I don't understand how people are pushing for shorter workweeks, and even for universal basic income, meanwhile all the Starbucks near me close at 7pm because they're short-staffed.

In 2019 I went to Vegas (I'm European) to play poker, and there is a place nearby called the "pinball hall of fame" where I spent an afternoon, playing all those retro games in the same conditions that they were played in the 80s and even earlier. It is a charity, the employees there manage the shop and maintain the machines in great conditions. Apparently they have moved nearby recently. It was really fun and worth the time spent.
