As a South American fútbol fan: the <City> <Random GRR word> is very annoying.

Just say “New York Fútbol Club”. See, it breathes already.

Daemonizing is a thing of the past with modern restarter frameworks, like SMF, systemd, supervisord, etc. But daemonizing was always an option, not a requirement, and as an option, it's safe enough to provide it for those who don't use a restarter.
> please stop frigging saying it's the garbage collector and look at your crap for real lol

Because if the garbage collector is the bottleneck you need to fix your code to not produce so much garbage.
At this point I trust the Go modules supply chain considerably more than any free distro's packaging, which is ultimately pulling from GitHub anyway.
Your description of the fight is so hyperbolic. It’s not nearly as lopsided as you imply. I have no doubt there are current women’s MMA athletes who could beat Alana.

Also the amount of toxic transphobia in the comments on that video is pretty sickening.
Russia has invaded and taken territory from Georgia and Ukraine, both former Soviet republics. They have not (yet) invaded the former Soviet republics of Lithuania, Latvia or Estonia. These countries are all EU and NATO member states now.
Celsius Network Customer Support on Liquidity (April 2021)
Anecdotal, but I know several Russian programmers who've taken jobs in Russia (formally working for western companies) because now with the RUB so strong, they actually make more money working for local companies.
if there is none, it is definitely worth writing.

The percentage doesn't matter. You have to pay taxes on the stock you own (ie, your startup). You do that by selling the stock. As the value of the company increases, you are forced to sell off increasingly large chunks of your stake to pay the bill thereby loosing ownership (control) in the process.
>"Continue doing business as usual as if they're not murdering women and children?"

No we should do everything possible to stop it.

There is a problem though - when "murdering women and children" is done by approved country "Continue doing business as usual" is pretty much what the West does. And I am not aware of any real repercussions for the crimes committed.
I don't get how this is a story. Who wouldn't think Amazon is buying land for warehouses?

And what exactly does it mean for them to be doing it "quietly"? Are they supposed to bring a marching band along everytime they look at property?
Is 60% features, 30% maintenance, 10% bugs a good target?
This is a very confused question. The data store you keep your queued items in is completely orthogonal to what a message queue actually is.

A simple way to use an RDBMS as a message queue, that has been in use since before most HN readers were born, is roughly:

- enqueue an item by inserting a row into a table with a status of QUEUED
- use a SELECT FOR UPDATE, or UPDATE...LIMIT 1, or similar, to atomically claim and return the first status=QUEUED item, while setting its status to RUNNING (setting a timestamp is also recommended)
- when the work is complete, update the status to DONE

There are more details to it obviously but that's the outline.

The first software company I worked for was using this basic approach to queue outbound emails (and phone and fax... it was 2005!), millions per day, on an Oracle DB that also ran the entire rest of the business. It's not hard.
And unfortunately AppleScript…
Same here. They seem to load now.

validating yaml, or any input data, is likely a good idea. does the validation have to be based on a human readable schema though?

i’ve started manually validating yaml the hard way, and writing human readable but otherwise useless schemas. it feels like a reasonable approach.

Your job likely isn't backed by the state's "monopoly on violence", either.
Yes. It's another level of the same problem.

Rust is like a piano where certain keys have been removed so you never play out of key.
This is a super trivial example of a very simple algorithm that doesn't have to interact with any other systems. It's almost certainly copied directly from the training data as well, which is fine for an educational toy example, but generally a violation of copyright.

I've been quite happy with Github Copilot but it is not remotely useful to a non-programmer.
This is true with all process creation APIs.

Windows defaults to CLOEXEC semantics and you have to opt-in to child process inheriting open file handles, and that has caused problems.

Unix defaults to not-CLOEXEC sematincs, and that too has caused problems.
Apple was dying and it was only saved because Bill Gates could not afford for Microsoft to become a monopoly so he put the money. Apple lives out of it's duopoly with Google on mobile phones. Or is Apple TV so successful?

Apple may not be a bad company but it has survived out of pure luck.
Is this a surprise? They’ve been vocally against NATO’s eastward expansion for a long time, and Ukraine was a known line in the sand.

Of course, one could argue Ukraine has a right to self determination, but we effectively egged them on and on. And now here we are - Ukraine is getting destroyed in a war of attrition, more or less a proxy war.
Next time you're doing a road trip, time out how long you're stopping for breaks. There's _no_ chance I'd ever spend only 2 minutes gassing up, that's below even just the minumum time to add gas, not to mention stretching legs, getting something to drink, bodily fuctions.
And for this particular attack, constant time isn't even enough! You would need either constant power, or limit the frequency when running secure code (which again reduces performance).
Iridium is just insane visually, I love it.

As far as I've ever been able to tell, there are no polygons.

- Player and enemy ships + missiles etc are flat 2D scaled sprites
- Some backgrounds are pure FMV (I think some warping is applied as the player ship moves, to give a more 3D feel)
- Some backgrounds are "SNES Mode 7" style ceilings and floors

Probably the definitive example of "faking 3D without using any polygons" IMO. Even more impressive than Sega's super-scaler games like Space Harrier, Galaxy Force, etc.

It's a legitimate question, although I wouldn't use stories about Coinbase as any indication about the answer.
The postal service is a marvel of efficiency
Yes, I know.

My whole point is that cars are more demanding than houses.

So the house battery can tolerate a moderately lower temperature while meeting baseline performance.
Fuck who? He's more likely to destroy Russia and not much else.

Given the performance of the Russian military what makes you think that Russian nukes (and the people who operate them) are any better?

US intelligence and capabilities are likely much more effective than anyone knows.
Once they run out of military hardware probably. Russian military doctrine has throughout ages been to throw massive amounts of human lives at the enemy, same is true for today. At some point however, without military hardware it will become absurd even for them.

Russians themselves have gotten used to consumer goods etc from the west, but they are mostly too afraid to rise up against or fight for Putin, who has most of modern russian state built around himself. So, no uprising from within probably.

Altogether if not the end of summer, then it's into very scary territory. Famine + energy prices - while Russia being unable to advance in Ukraine because of seasonal changes.
What kind of protection does Facebook Container have other than deleting cookies outside of the container?

For my case Total Cookie Protection is enough, but if you want the same protection of Facebook Container for every website (i.e. session cookies which are deleted each time you restart the browser) you can install Cookie AutoDelete or use the built-in option to delete cookies at restart (whitelisting websites where you need permanent cookies).
> How much samples are needed to get anything useful?

There is proof-of-concept code for reproducing. I don't think sample count is a big concern.

That said, I believe the real caveat lies in the "workload must run for long enough to trigger frequency scaling" part. Usual crypto primitives are just too fast on our processors, which is likely why they picked SIKE to demo the attack.
> he's blocking measures to increase North American oil production.

How?
> Anyone claiming that we could be 100% non-nuclear non-CO2 is completely delusional

Not even half as delusional as the pro-nuclear power talk here, where every argument in favor goes, no matter how outlandish, unrealistic, or flat out wrong.
It crosses the line into chilling for me when I stop and ponder how many of the people who comment on topics like this are directly or indirectly responsible for framing policy at multinational corporations building global-scope communications infrastructures.
> It's a bit like asking a carpenter how many years of experience they have with DeWalt cordless nail guns rather than ask about their house framing skills.

This kind of logic only works for tech organizations that already have enough in-house domain expertise to onboard new programmers. The other day somebody asked me how to find a programmer to implement something for them. From a programming standpoint there was very little to do, but it involved many obscure technologies that you couldn't pickup in a day (and no you can't pick different technologies). For a person who's already done something similar it'd be a quick and easy job, shouldn't cost too much. With a generic programmer it'd take much longer, cost much more and you couldn't be sure they'd actually deliver.
Maybe that's a geographical thing; I live in Europe, and there are barely any SWE without a master or equivalent here.
Google's income will not change if they don't track.

If they can't track, then each ad has less value. But then the advertiser has more budget available to spend on advertising.

Net result is no change for advertisers, or Google. But they users will see more, less targeted ad.

So that's my prediction as the result of this: We'll have more ads, but each will be less personalized.
Has there ever been a study on how many "productive" billionaires there are, as compared to those who are simply rent-seekers?

Or a study that has shown that billionaires ("job creators") are those who are the primary driving force for wealth creation?

Or are the much-bandied Gates/Musk entrepreneur-industrialist types just a minority of billionaires, many of whom are just wealthy heirs or hedge fund owners or whatever
I’ll be honest, I’ve been on adderall (with occasional periods off the drug) for almost 20 years now, and I’ve never experienced anything remotely approaching mania or severe depression (as distinguished from rare bouts of sadness). And I’ve not always been the most careful taker of the medication, frequently alternating between taking too much or lowering my dose.

I’m not saying it’s not possible to have those side effects, I just haven’t experienced them.
Very little stock market wealth is held by pension funds on behalf of workers, as opposed to the already wealthy. See https://www.pensionsage.com/pa/Pension-scheme-holding-less-t..., for example. And the value on these schemes are disproportionately held by those who own and/or run companies rather than those who work in them: the Small Self-Administered Scheme is a popular means of UK tax avoidance for business owners who would like their capital gains tax free, and assets held in these schemes (on trust for the owner) will also be included in these figures.

Returns on capital flow, unsurprisingly, to those with capital. And the concentration of capital in fewer and fewer hands is precisely the issue that people are objecting to.
denial or not, Ukraine repelled Putin's coupe d'etat. Neither West nor Putin expected that.
>The thing about the Cuban missile crisis is that Kennedy was able to get Russian missiles AWAY from the United States.

It only happened in the first place because the US put missiles in Turkey. Take them away and suddenly the soviet union is ok with removing the cuban nukes.

In this case a simple "Ukraine wont be joining NATO" would have prevented this war.

>Russia's actions are getting hardware placed closer.

The strategic significance of the other locations is far less than the donbas. Note the whole "location where they almost lost ww2" thing. It's kind of important. The US/NATO wanted a base in Mariupol because its the perfect location to threaten Russia, and they almost got it. Finland was the consolation prize.
To what extent do you think that billionaires earn the wealth that they have?
I don't need any of that stuff, and nor does anyone who would use this. People who need clustered high-availability stuff are paying for PagerDuty or VictorOps.

This is for tiny shops with 4 servers. And tiny shops with 4 servers don't have time to spin up a horrendous stack like this. I was excited to see this announcement until I saw all the moving pieces. No thanks!
Diagnosed at 25, started Vyvanse right away. My ADHD is similar to what you describe, and the medication has helped with the mandatory chores of day to day life. If anything it has the effect of feeling that nothing is “too hard” for me and that I am not “too dumb to learn or do X”.

Side effects are light to moderately sever headache if I don’t drink enough water, IBM, high blood pressure and a pinch of insomnia.

It’s all worth it.

Compost takes 20 days to 20 months depending on the feed stock. The main issue with compost is that it can be effective in high-intensity operations like market gardens, but it's much less effective on large acre operations (corn, soy, wheat, etc).

Not to mention that compost is really difficult to come by now.

Unless a farmer is making compost on the side, they can't really treat it as a known input.

I would also argue that chronic over-usage of ammonia-based fertilizers and over-tiling has contributed to degradation to much of the world's farming soil. Which has given rise to many adverse effects such nutrient runoff, poor water infiltration, soil erosion, and downstream effects.
When I got diagnosed with ADHD I felt empowered. It let me think, no, I'm not uniquely broken, there's a ton of successful people who have similar brain chemistry to me.

I think you're getting downvoted because it sounds like you're encouraging people not to get professional help.
Each city in the US has a unique homelessness problem. Relevant blog [1]. The most relevant distinction is between tech-cities that HN audiences live in (SF, Seattle) vs the success stories mentioned in this article (Atlanta, Houston). See the graphs here, credit to Dynomight: [2]

Atlanta and Houston were dealing with high number of 'mentally healthy and sober' homeless. They were ripe for rehousing, and the project was a relative success. DO NOT EXTEND THESE INTUITIONS TO YOUR TECH CITY.

Seattle and SF have seen an alarmingly high base/growth of mentally unhealthy homeless with substance abuse issues. Houston's solutions will not work here. There is reason a that residents of NYC do not complain about their homeless populations as much. They are overwhelmingly sheltered and able [3]. On the other hand, Seattle resident complain more about the sub-human interactions (property crime, harassment, flashing, open defecation) caused by for which the proportionally-larger mentally-ill/addicted population. Guess which city had an anomalous jump in meth consumption over a couple of years. It's Seattle [4]

Drugs and mental health are at the center of the homelessness, crime, urban fallout and lack of safety in west coast tech cities. It is a hard problem with no good solutions, but ""compassion"" and abolition are certainly not it. The safety of 'mentally healthy and sober' homeless can only be ensured through the Institutionalization (institutional care or forced social isolation) of the mentally ill and drug addicted.

Homeless shelters, social welfare workers and protection from police harassment are good learnings to pick from other cities. However, Seattle and SF should also consider reopening psychiatric hospitals, forcing mandatory rehab and unfortunately imprisoning repeat violent offenders who refuse care. Some might call it inhumane. But, it provides rehabilitation for those willing to seek care, it provides safety for those who've 'fallen on hard times' and makes the difficult decision to socially-isolate the small but dangerous minority within them. If you have a better solution, I am all ears.

Last but not the least, NIMBYism is selfish. It is okay to be selfish. But do not claim to fight injustices, for then you'd be a hypocrite. It is not okay to be hypocrite.[5]

Russia will not come out of this any better. China and India are gleefully picking the bones, and it's hard to blame them. The fudged numbers of the Ruble are irrelevant.
The same limits can be applied to organizations and constellations of organizations.
If they start hiring around christmas they saved no money and would have been better off keeping the employees. It looks like we are in store for a long down period.
I have done the Workera SWE Domain test (244/300, 95th pctl), and the algorithmic coding test (125/300, 41st pctl). Clearly, my DSA expertise atm is sh*t.
Considering that commodities matter and Russia has them in spades, is run by (mostly) competent people (notice I didn't say moral or ethical) and has many friends outside the west, including the most populous countries, their economy is not collapsing any time soon.
> Do you really think Apple demanded a subscription give-away?

I don’t, but it’s really not the most outlandish idea. It gives every season ticket holder a reason to either buy an Apple TV or, maybe more importantly, start using the Apple TV app on their existing devices.

Imagine you’re an Orlando City fan who’s happy with Hulu and never really cared to open the Apple TV app on your Samsung TV. Now that you’re using Apple TV to watch matches, though, you’ve started to come across some of those other shows you’ve heard people talk about.

Ted Lasso seems pretty cool, maybe you’ll sign up for Apple TV+ and give it a try…
"Hitler wins this war no matter what, just let him kill all the Jews and enslave non-Aryans so that we could avoid needless deaths and suffering" — does that sound right to you? This is exactly how this ignorant nonsense sounds to a Ukrainian.

This is genocide. Not resisting means millions killed and tens of millions brutally oppressed, a whole nation and its culture erased from existence, and an invitation for further imperialistic wars and atrocities, because evil unpunished only leads to more evil on a larger scale.
An interesting aspect of the Shuttle mission was the military dual-use. Scott Manley's video "The Most Important Space Shuttle Mission Never Happened" is a great explainer of a specific planned but never executed mission, the requirements of that drove many of the shuttle's design tradeoffs.

People who complain are loud. Just because they’re loud doesn’t make the UI changes bad.

I find I legitimately prefer the newer UI of Big Sur onwards. I just don’t feel the need to shout it from the heavens.

An alternative take: you’re really going to suggest that one of the richest companies in the world doesn’t do extensive UI/UX testing before putting things out the door? They’re not just saying “yeah, this looks nice - ship it!”.
Most of the people in the first category don't really cross paths with the chronic population- they have friends or family who will take them in for a bit, and likely already have access to a bank account and other myriad things that the chronically homeless do not.

Focusing on the episodically homeless may be a better way to prevent more becoming chronically homeless; they may not have as many of the barriers (deeply seated drug addiction, mental illness, fear of being involuntarily committed) that is more prevalent among the chronic homeless, but I imagine they are more likely to quickly burn through their social network good will than the first category.
I don't think any of these side channels are really easy to pull off without the technical capabilities of a nation state or something similar. I personally think embedding a malicious script in a CDN (e.g. https://blog.ryotak.me/post/cdnjs-remote-code-execution-en/) that serves a script for a large website, or something similar (https://blog.igorescobar.com/2016/08/21/ive-the-chance-to-tr...), is more realistic than getting the victim to install your program -- I would imagine sensitive individuals are very concerned about installing arbitrary software.

We did get a comment about this in our rebuttal but didn't end up including it in our final paper -- we found that we distinguished sites with the same frameworks (such as react, angular, and jquery) at the same accuracy at sites that used different frameworks.

We didn't do much research into content/non-homepage paths but it's a good area for future research. I would suspect it'll still do pretty well.

And yes, we concluded that the source came from interrupts (in Table 3 of our paper you can see we ran an experiment with frequency scaling turned off), which does make me question the practicality of hertzbleed. I wouldn't doubt it can be exploited somehow though.
The state of California requires that Employees are paid for 60 work days (8 weeks) if there is a layoff at this scale. I assume that's where the majority of these employees are located. They're offering an extra month/month and a half likely on the condition they sign some sort of NDA/Right to sue the company for wrongful termination.
Let’s be conservative and say Armstrong has just a net worth of the house he bought: 150,000,000. If the average employee’s salary is 150,000, Armstrong makes 1,000 times more than them. Does this seem fair? Does he deserve higher compensation for his entrepreneurial skills? Absolutely. But 1,000? It’s hard for us to imagine the scale of 1,000 times greater than something but it seems excessive (and remember, this is being extremely conservative). Does he really work 1,000 times harder than the average employee?

These aren’t rhetorical questions by the way. I genuinely want to know, what do you think?
This might be a stretch, but Any chance it could answer "What can I make/prep/bring on a week long camping trip?"
A bit of perspective from speed user (amphetamine, not meth) who I know:
Been into it for 10+ years. Usual weekend binge on 3.5 grams of good quality amphetamine.
Can last from Friday evening till Tuesday, will little sleep between.
Lots of things get done.
Rest of the week head and brain is out service, depression you call it, nothing is been done, hard to go to work, any excuse willdo, sort out yourself some food or a takeaway, watch some youtube, sleep a lot till you get better.
Current state, 5 weeks clean: go to work, no problem 8 hours shift, do your duty to pay the bills. After work - eat, relax for a bit, read a lot be it books or just daily news. Bed time. Personal projects be it coding or electronics just put on hold....
