It makes me embarrassed to use Linux. People ask about simple features like supporting Nvidia hardware or letting us move the dock to the left or right, and I have to explain to them that the reason those features don't exist is because of "developer politics". I can't even recommend desktop Linux anymore knowing that this is the way the desktop is headed. If GNOME's desktop metaphor is just going to be whittled down to iPadOS-tier functionality, they shouldn't even bother calling themselves a desktop environment. Hell, they should have just separated from the Linux kernel when they decided to implement Wayland and saved everyone else the trouble of cleaning up their mess. Maybe that's a harsh way of looking at things, but it's not like they see the scenario as benevolent either.
they're terrible when you need to float windows (like plots, or gui apps, or gui system utilities). i used to think about how i could merge the two and have floating vs. tiling desktops.

then i realized i could just run a full screen terminal on one desktop and run tmux within it. it can be a little annoying with just one screen but otherwise great.

(incidentally, i also used to be a window maker person, and an actual nextstep person... after those two i ran something extremely lightweight, with small thin window decorations and that's it. i cannot remember the name)

According to the following link, that literally sounds nothing like Kubernetes. Perhaps a more appropriate analogy to older tech is something like LSF or Slurm.

>>The only advise I have is to not think of any job as below you.

This. I had two tries at starting up last decade, failed. Good for me, I had some back up plans. Beyond all, I realised, a regular salaried job is a privilege. There is nothing wrong in taking up a full time 9-5 job. In my case I had a full time job, before, and just continued it after my venture went under water. For some reason such a job which is something most people aspire for, is considered some sort of a failure in entrepreneur community. You get a salary every month, with annual bonus, and health care plus vacation covered. How is this failure? If anything this is the best thing that can happen to many people on this planet.

I'd advice the OP to consider taking up a full time job. If you have started up and seen any amount of success at all, chances are you will do good at interviews and eventually at your job. Do this for a few years until, fix your health and finances- and then work from there.

If people are doing what you’re claiming, it isn’t CRT (which, remember stands for "critical race theory"). I personally have no reason to believe that people are doing what you’re claiming.

What’s more likely is that people are saying "white people owned slaves" (fact, although disputed by the BoE in Texas), "the American Civil War was fought over slavery" (again, fact, disputed by pretty much all of the Republican party in 2022), "even after the racists lost, they caused more than a century of terror and division" (once again, absolute fact), and "even though civil rights legislation was passed and upheld to end that terror and division, the Republican Party and Supreme Court have steadily been eroding all of the gains in civil rights" (fact).

There are parents and Fox News Ninnies that are seeing these or similar factual statements and other factual statements as stated in the 1619 project and are completely freaking the fuck out and calling it "CRT" because they heard that term one day from people who look like them and they don’t want to think that they should perhaps be ashamed of the Confederate "heritage" of which they claim to be so proud (remember, most statues of the Confederate traitors weren’t put up until the 1900s). There are people — way too many people, and way too many on HN itself — who don’t see any problem with advancing the completely debunked and grossly racist Replacement Theory.

Are you doing that? Nope.

But you’re sure as hell carrying their water by pretending that talking straight about systemic racism, historic racism, and ongoing racism and bias against minorities is itself racism.

White kids aren’t being told they are bad. White kids are being told that they are beneficiaries of undeserved bias in favour of them. They aren’t bad: society itself is bad, and there needs to be strong action against this. And this, like everything else that I’ve actually said in the threads here, is 100% indisputable fact.
I really like Rectangle. There’s a ton of apps like it. Some even more complex and some even more simple. Depends on your needs.
I’m in America and it’s six clicks but pretty straightforward nonetheless:

1. Click “account”

2. Click “Manage Prime Membership”

3. Click “Manage Membership”

4. In the drop down click “manage membership” (ok, this is a bit silly, but no misdirection so far)

5. Click “end membership”

6. Click “cancel my benefits”

I could see an argument to be made that step 5 should be the last step. But it took me less than 20 seconds to figure out how to cancel my Prime membership even though I’ve never done it before.

All that said, I also appreciate the argument by EU regulators that a subscription cancel flow should only be 2-3 clicks at the most.
I am not sure there is a void in the crypto space that otherwise would have been filled by Novi. Even a more centralized (federated?) coin like that would still inherit major shortcomings of blockchain-based digital currencies.

TL;DR: There is a GNOME feature toggled by an environment variable, which tweaks how apps are rendered, sometimes making them better. This developer proposes effectively removing this (making it into a "debug flag", which seems to mean only those using debug builds can enable it), while linking to a page on Arch Wiki which details how to use this environment variable, and calling the Arch Wiki writers "clowns".

The absolute disdain and hate the GNOME team has for anyone who uses their software in a way they didn't intend is staggering. Where does it come from? What's it like working on the GNOME team? Is it a cult where you're indoctrinated into believing that GNOME has the one true way and the rest of the Linux community are barbarian hordes? I really want to know.

I have used gnome pretty much since Fedora/RedHat started packaging it. For the past 2 years or so, I have been using Material Shell (https://material-shell.com/) which gives Gnome tiling functionality and I have been really happy with the overall experience.

But, just recently, a co-worker mentioned Sway. I have to use things that prevent me from using Wayland, so I decided to give i3 a try after touching it and not understanding it many years ago.

The point of my WM life story is, that after all that, I have stuck with i3 for about 3 weeks now and am falling in love with it. There were some gnome things that I missed, but was able to quickly piece things together to get the functionality I wanted. Being a vi guy also, I really like using modes for my keyboard shortcuts too. It definitely helps with my productivity (when I'm not playing with things to increase my productivity anyway :) )
This may be coming from a privileged position, but I don't get the "bad neighbourhood" thing (I can also run quite fast and am generally fit and healthy, so that's also a factor). I'm also based in Australia, so our idea of "bad neighbourhood" might not even be a blip on the US scale of "bad neighbourhood".

I was working in Melbourne, staying near St. Kilda, and was told by some colleagues "don't go down street X at night", so I went down street X at night, had a nice meal there, walked back, no fucking worries at all.

Next morning I heard on the news that someone had been stabbed to death on that street within half an hour of my being out and about there.

The thing is, though, if you're not out causing trouble or selling drugs or buying drugs, or a member of the various competing underworlds, then you're likely to be totally fine. The stabbing was drug related.

It's a bad neighborhood if you're part of what makes it a bad neighborhood - in this case, at least.

This sounds very odd - I read this book with skepticism as a PhD neuroscientist, and found much of it to be completely preposterous, and yet, somehow, it still helped me get back to running after being unable to run properly for 2.5 years. I didn't even have to fully believe the weirder aspects of his theories - the core, and more defensible parts were enough to give me benefits I didn't really expect, as a skeptic.

As far as I am aware, the capability required to exploit Meltdown is compute and timers. For example, an attacker running a binary directly on the host, or a VM/interpreter (js, wasm, python, etc) executing the attacker's code that exposes a timer in some way.

If you just have a dumb "request/response" service you may not have to worry.

A database is an interesting case. Scylla uses CQL, which is a very limited language compared to something like javascript or SQL - there's no way to loop as far as I know, for example. I would probably recommend not exposing your database directly to an attacker anyways, that seems like a niche scenario.

If you're just providing, say, a gRPC API that takes some arguments, places them (safely) into a Scylla query, and gives you some result, I don't think any of those mitigations are necessary and you'll probably see a really nice win if you disable them.

This is my understanding as a security professional who is not an expert on those attacks, because I frankly don't have the time. I'll defer to someone who has done the work.

Separately, (quoting the article)

> Let's suppose, on the one hand, that you have a multi-user system that relies solely on Linux user permissions and namespaces to establish security boundaries. You should probably leave the mitigations enabled for that system.

Please don't ever rely on Linux user permissions/namespaces for a multi-tenant system. It is not even close to being sufficient, with or without those mitigations. It might be OK in situations where you also have strong auth (like ssh with fido2 mfa) but if your scenario is "run untrusted code" you can't trust the kernel to do isolationl

> On the other hand, suppose you are running an API server all by itself on a single purpose EC2 instance. Let's also assume that it doesn't run untrusted code, and that the instance uses Nitro Enclaves to protect extra sensitive information. If the instance is the security boundary and the Nitro Enclave provides defense in depth, then does that put mitigations=off back on the table?

Yeah that seems fine.

> Most people don't disable Spectre mitigations, so solutions that work with them enabled are important. I am not 100% sure that all of the mitigation overhead comes from syscalls,

This has been my experience and, based on how the mitigation works, I think that's going to be the case. The mitigations have been pretty brutal for syscalls - though I think the blame should fall on intel, not the mitigation that has had to be placed on top of their mistake.

Presumably io_uring is the solution, although that has its own security issues... like an entirely new syscall interface with its own bugs, lack of auditing, no ability to seccomp io_uring calls, no meaningful LSM hooks, etc. It'll be a while before I'm comfortable exposing io_uring to untrusted code.

Behind the scenes of Waymo’s worst automated truck crash
Holy smokes, this is super impressive!

I have a personal question if you don't mind -- I do some SQL query generation and transpilation for both work and hobby.
One headache I've run into recently is generating nested EXISTS() subqueries.

Imagine you have something like this:

// WHERE Name = 'Audioslave'
{
type: "binary_op",
operator: "equal",
column: { path: [], name: "Name" },
value: { type: "scalar", value: "Audioslave" },
}

This is all fine, but what if you want to say "A binary operation on related entities":

{
type: "binary_op",
operator: "equal",
column: { path: ["Albums", "Tracks"], name: "AlbumId" },
value: { type: "scalar", value: 40 },
},

Which you want to generate something like:

WHERE EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM Albums WHERE Albums.ForeignKey = t.PrimaryKey
AND EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM Tracks WHERE Tracks.ForeignKey = Albums.PrimaryKey AND AlbumId = 40))

How to do this is giving me a headache for a lot of reasons and I can't seem to come up with a good way.
Any tips, references, or search terms to google?

Thank you, look forward to digging in more + gave your repo a star!
Code can be parsed into an abstract syntax tree. Structural editing is editing code at the tree level. You probably already do it using expand/shrink selection.

If you have a selection eg. a node on this tree, expand selection would move up one level on this tree and select the higher node and everything underneath it.

You can play around with this concept here:
https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/playground.
Click the blue elements in the tree section and see how it affects what is selected.

Now imagine a grammar/keymap which is optimized for traversing, selecting, mutating code at this level. I think this is the future, not the VIM grammar. Many IDE's already do this style of editing to an extent.

It is true that however you measure it there is a lot more software now.

But the phrase "barely existed" has connotations of struggle. As though it was close to not existing at all.

No one says "cars barely existed in the 1930's" or "humanity barely existed pre 1600" (world population ~0.5 billion).

By 1999 consumer software definitively existed and was thriving just fine even if it was comparatively early days to what we have now.
I'm sorry, English is not my first language and obviously I was unable to convey my opinion clearly enough.
The first sentence was referring to the fact that in western countries almost everybody has a smartphone so there's no real need of a watch to measure time.
Being unsure if the above holds true for non western countries too, I have limited my statement to western countries.
Basically my statement was referring to general availability of smartphones and not to the preciseness of western smartphones vs. non western smartphones.
Probably I should have referred to 'first world' countries vs. non 'first world' countries.
Sorry for the misunderstanding and thank you for your comment.

A bear, however, will use (and indeed seek to monopolize) violence to defend its den. That makes it property, at least until the bear relinquishes its claim (or something - or someone - else challenges its monopoly on violence).
The Binding of Isaac has a lot of this. It's a Rogue-lite where a single run is a descent through a series of dungeons, each dungeon composed like Zelda 1 as a series of rooms interconnected by doors, and each type of room pulls from its own pool of human-designed layouts when that level is generated. Each moment of gameplay is a risk calculation on every granularity of your run simultaneously: for the run as a whole (e.g. dungeon branch points based on reaching a given point within <xx> minutes), for each dungeon level (e.g. different after-boss reward possibility for no damage taken during that level), for the current room (e.g. choosing when to activate charged items), and for any given mob based on how well you've learned their movement and attack patterns. Plays best with a controller, imo, like a twin-stick shooter: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/2405/The_Binding_of_Is...
The original techy userbase left when reddit accepted massive amounts of venture capital and had to make a profit in early to mid 2010s. It's been inertia ever since. They've been trying very hard to gentrify and make reddit as appealing as possible to all the people that wanted to leave Facebook but still wanted a facebook-alike. And reddit provided that with a heavy shift to user-profile based posting and integration of commercial ad accounts as users.

So now they're left with effectively Facebook users but without all the real names and private information to sell so of course that doesn't work. There's no way 1.3 billion USD in venture capital is getting a return without it continuing to be run into the ground.
