I believe Ryan Graves has stated that he's willing to testify if Senate holds a hearing on UAPs. It's incredibly frustrating reading these accounts of powered, maneuvering UAPs flying 30 feet from the aircraft without having any access to the videos, FLIR, and other data. Really hoping a Senate hearing happens and these videos come out publicly.
Yep, the original is "pull the lever to kill on person instead of five" and there are many many more variations with more direct action. The pure utilitarian will still choose the "kill one instead of five" no matter the situation. But some variations come up with things like: "you are a doctor with 5 patients who need 5 different organ transplants and are going to do die, do you kill the hospital janitor to harvest their organs to save 5 people"
The resale value of that 2019 will be high. I don’t know the safest place to sell them though. Recommendations welcome! EBay just fills me with dread.
If Apple was really serious about this, they would add one more feature to Lockdown mode: To delete and scrub permanently and definitively all your iCloud data.

You can close the proverbially "front door" by enabling "Lockdown mode" but if that same government sends a subpoena to Apple, then they will just give them a copy of all your iCloud private data.
I made a slightly more tunable one after being disappointed with the "official" flicker. I saw more visuals speeding it up closer to 10hz, but still just basic geometric shapes.

MySpace was my first coding experience and I think ultimately tipped me to CS in school.

I remember laying out my page like a pink and black newspaper. All that work for no one to read lol.

The cheapest model is already most of the way there, though the higher end models do clean at twice the frequency so those might be somewhat better.
> a rule stating that all takeout food must be packaged or covered

> On May 6, 1986 Carmel City Council passed a resolution to enable a rewrite of the ordinance related to eating places and takeout food and make said ordinance more friendly toward ice cream parlors. The new language made eating establishments that “primarily serve frozen desserts” their own category

So they solved this inane takeout ordinance by exempting frozen desserts. I guess takeout hotdogs, pretzels, etc are still required to be sold with excessive packaging. Or perhaps a little paper dish for a hotdog is sufficient packaging? Could they have sold icecream cones if they put the cone into a paper sleeve?

Some of the things small towns see fit to regulate give an undue bad name to all government regulation.
> the second amendment notes the right of PEOPLE to keep and bear arms

Your interpretation here is merely one of a few, rather than factual. There have been many Supreme Court justices who did believe the wording gave militias (or "collective") a right. It mostly stems from the opening ("prefatory") clause, and the meaning of the comma separating it from the final ("operative") clause.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_to_the_United...

Not sure why you linked that definition of a "militia" – has there ever been a Supreme Court ruling that pushed that narrative, or was this just a fun fact?
Have you considered using blacklists? You could cooperate with Brave and their Goggles: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31837986
Thank you, the cleaned up version is helpful. We definitely have a lot of UX work to do :)
Why? Signal is a very simple application.

It used to be very common for individual developers, or small teams, to publish native programs. WinZip, Winamp, 7Zip, TreeSize, Tag & Rename, Beyond Compare, Nero, PuTTY, all just off the top of my head.

It is very, very possible to create performant, maintainable native software with no larger a developer team than it takes to build web software. We're just collectively too lazy to try.
Yes. Talk to your dental hygienist and they will confirm this. Mine told me a story recently of when she was in school they were graded on how little plaque they had on their teeth. So her and all her friends did everything they could. New toothbrushes, flossing, the metal scrapers, and helping each other. No one removed everything and I guess that's the point of the lesson. Plaque builds up quickly and over time. What harms teeth and gums is far more than microbes.

But that also seems like where nanobots would come in. If you could have a mouth wash that had nanobots that would perform that abrasive scrubbing and then decay (and not leave byproducts) then it would help and could replace brushing and flossing. But definitely mouthwash is nowhere near the effectiveness of brushing nor flossing. Would be a cool future, but I suspect we're still a long way from that.
Welp, you can disregard my comment then lol
I guess that means GTK-based apps will not be able to run on the BSDs?
This comparison is absurd, for the reason you note and apparently dismiss. Efficiency comparisons are really only relevant when you're looking at the same input.
You aren't answering the questions but okay.

But FYI, I earn more than my country's average household's wealth in a year in salary only. I don't know who you're debating with.
Isn't this a good thing? It's quite easy to accidentally go to a site that does something evil with your private data, like log an ip address. At least here you've been spared the pain.
Most of the problem described here is the input mechanism. The building I work in has "destination dispatch" too but instead of a touchscreen, it has a large numeric keypad that you type your floor number on, with physical buttons that look like normal elevator buttons. We do also have some floors that are open to the public and i've only seen people confused by it a couple of times in several years of working here.

If it were a full time hustle I would be writing the equivalent of several blog articles a week "encircling" the topic from all directions on multiple platforms and pushing all of those posts hard on social media.

What sort of moderate middle?

Democrats in USA are a right wing party. Republicans even more so.

The moderates are the progressive wing of democrats, a minority.

That republicans no longer want to cooperate with even a right wing party is telling, and that they paint it as some sort of socialist anti-freedom movement.

I was once tasked with writing a very important system and so started to attend meetings with higher-ups to discuss what had to be done.

I had no idea what they were talking about 90% of the time.

After 5 or 6 very long meetings, I decided to propose what I think should be done in the hope that their feedback would give me some insight.

The result was that the final product was exactly what I had proposed.
Hm, I think you're mixing some things. A nation state could be embedding root certificates via a vendor, see Lenovo superfish (I know this wasn't done by the government, but that somehow makes it even worse). But a nation state actor also could simply buy the latest exploit from HackingTeam/Cellebrite/GrayKey/<current exploit vendor>.

Let's encrypt is secure against MITM as far as I know because you still have to verify you own a given domain somehow. I cannot get a let's encrypt certificate for google.com for example.

>so "a terrible cost for the environment" is a terrible cost for humans.

In fact that's the only meaningful/sensible way to interpret the phrase "terrible cost for the environment". For most of the planet's history even while supporting all sorts of weird and wonderful lifeforms, the environment would have been pretty hostile to humans, and almost certainly unable to support 9+ billion of us. In principle with enough tech some of humanity could survive even without a hospitable natural environment, but it's not an existence many would choose.
Haha yeah it takes a week or two to get fully used to it, I know a few people who just couldn't stomach it.
I did - I believed all the '8 gig is fine' stuff at the beginning, and didn't like how much Apple charged for RAM. But for my work anyway it often starts having stuttering and slowness issues if I have too many things open. Otherwise it's quite fast.
Google advanced protection mode has been available for a while.

The threat models are different because the companies provide different services (spear phishing defenses from the web services company, hardware defences from the hardware provider), but still.
In 1900, no historians thought Jesus was like Moses, Abraham, and Adam, made up from whole cloth. In 2000, some did. Today, more.

The scenario as I understand it is that Paul's writing came first. But to get a congregation to pay attention they found they had to invent a corporeal Jesus to have said their things, then apostles to have heard them, then a bio for where and when, and finally gospels to tell it in.

For those who object that such a thing wasn't done, consider Moses and, really, all of Genesis and Exodus. Iliad. Thor'n'Loki. It was not just done, but positively demanded.
> while i assume there are good business reasons you're basing your stuff on Bing

I'd strongly suspect it's the same reason DDG does so: Bing offers a search API, and Google has no incentive to offer access to its index and results

There are plenty of companies that make a living scraping results out of Google, so I don't mean to say it's impossible, it's just a monster amount of energy playing cat and mouse with what is effectively an unlimited budget to stop one from accomplishing that goal
The elevators are not evenly spaced. This point is in the article but could have been belabored a bit more. If they are evenly spaced, there is no difference.
Yeah it'd be cool if we could live as a super organism like ants or bees.

As to your question:

Yes, to me, logically, your body is atomised and then remade. You die, then a clone appears.

I assume this must mean that the elevators are not equidistant from eachother. As in 1 is 10 feet from 2 is 20 feet from three.
Yeah, I had a 2012 era MBA, and it was basically the ideal laptop, until it didn't have the power to run XCode (so I bought a 2015 15"). The M1 Air is there again, fast enough, light enough, good enough keyboard, and incredible battery life.

I'm due for a work laptop upgrade soon, and I'm on the fence between a maxed MBA m2 and a 14" M1 Pro with 32G ram. It'll be mainly tethered to one big monitor, but light weight would be nice when commuting, as often as I do that.
Mandatory taxes, interest rates, printing money… nation states have a lot of power.
They’re not necessarily evenly spaced. The middle elevator might be a lot closer to one side than the other.

> Short term thinking is signing the death warrant on mankind one way or another.

A really bad economy will kill millions, perhaps even billions, and ruin the health of the planet far easier than anything else as society breaks down and people resort to depleting available resources far more rapidly and even stealing and ruining infrastructure to try and survive. We know what happens when people starve: there's no debate there.

But there's decades and decades of climate change predictions that have proven to be laughably false. Depending on how old you are, you'd have been subject to predictions about everything from a new ice age caused by pollution, to rapid global warming that would cause the ice caps to be long-gone by now or superstorms that would render much of the world uninhabitable, to acid rain making cities unlivable.

I've somehow survived all of that horror, and I'm fine taking my chances.

> You'd better be praying that some billionaire invests in....

If your solution is along these lines, then I'd say that prioritizing a healthy economy that can sustain life and have the resources to come up with these solutions is vital.
>>The dream I have is someone making a phone that is purpose-built to be secure against state actors

I just don't see how anyone could build such a thing. State level actors have the tools necessary to force you or your company to build in any backdoor they want, and prevent you from ever talking about it to anyone. US certainly does, and could just force apple to add a backdoor to this lockdown mode and apple could never even hint at its existence under legal threat.
Refactors of course come down to a tradeoff. I've always see it come down to, "do you want it on the deadline you set, or do you want it maintainable after?"

"By the deadline" is always chosen, and then management gets to complain about the incompetent developers who are just trying to deal with the hackathon-quality code they've been forced to write.
What a strange implementation of "format on too many missed passcodes". Apple (on iOS and watchOS) implements this, but after some amount of failures, phone gets into progressively longer lockdowns. So maybe after 3 failed attempts you have to wait 2 minutes, after 4th 5 minutes, and before the final (formatting) attempt you have to wait something like 12 hours. This prevents "kid playing with the phone" problem.
Tucker Carlson's Favorite 'Covid Contrarian' Alex Berenson Returns to Twitter
Honestly, this is bad news, because it means Apple is no longer capable of offering both security and all features…

Absolutely not true.

There’s a difference between being secure and having all of the features and being secure against a state-level attacker. The vast majority of users are quite secure while enjoying all of the features of their iPhones.

For those who are being targeted, potentially in a life or death situation, being able to send attachments in iMessage is trivial by comparison. Only a tiny percentage of iPhone users should ever have to enable this; it won’t impact the user experience of over 95% of iPhone users at all.
evil doers don’t block. on the contrary. they let you in.

sites like this paper just don’t want the hassle. if the site is small, and the EU visitor numbers are tiny why should they deal with gdpr? for the 2 monthly visitors that ended up on their website by mistake? easier and cheaper to firewall.
Is it really even a scam? They are hiring someone to pretend to be interested in them, and they are getting someone pretending to be interested in them. If they can't effectively distinguish between the two, where is the scam? Where is the bait and switch?
a search for v8 gave me:

so definitely some non-programming searches showing up, unfortunately none of the documentation sources for v8.
That code is fine in my book, there's more static code than for-comp and it's at work 3 level deep with no hard coupling between levels. Also well spaced and worded.
This sounds great, actually! I'm personally a fan of maximized windows for most of everything, and would very much like to use something that allows me to pin certain windows to certain workspaces like you describe.

Not sure if Windows 11 has something similar (at least, not with native workspaces - they only "remember" certain windows and not others..)
Going through the hassle of ensuring compliance, even if you’re 99% sure you’re fully compliant, isn’t worth it if none of your target market is European. Blocking is the rational move. (The alternative is ignoring GDPR, which most sites in this position do.)
Affirm? I assume
Very interesting.

Some of my results with code examples looked awfully similar to GitHub CoPilot output.

Is that being used to generate results sometimes?

(second comment - after I had some time to think about it)

Actually I think microservices serve as a tool for enforcing modularity. When pressure is high, corners are cut, and when unrelated code is easy to reach (as in case of a monolithic codebase), it's easy to fall into temptation - a small dirty hack is faster than refactoring. And when you consider different maintainers, it's easy to lose track of the original monolith architecture idea in all the dirty hacks.

Microservices enforce some kind of strict separation, so in theory nobody can do anything that they're not supposed to. In practice, a lot of coupling can happen at the microservices level - the most common symptom being some weird isolated APIs whose only purpose is to do that one thing that another service needs for some reason. Those kind of ad-hoc dependencies tend to make services implementation-specific and non-interchangeable, therefore breaking modularity.

So, in conclusion, some approaches are easier to keep modular than others, but there seems to be no silver bullet for replacing care and effort.
I know that FreeBSD has some wayland support already and wayland 1.20+ can build on BSD

Also, this is only for GTK 5, so by the time that even comes out (years) and apps switch to it, we could see widespread wayland support in BSD

More likely BSDs will finally get Wayland working.
I generally like party games over complex, rules-heavy or strategy-rich games and I hate time-pressure games. I play games to socialize, not for the games.

So in all honestly, Trivial Pursuit and variations, followed by whatever casual/party-style game is on offer, like Superfight or Cards Against Humanity.

I like the Unlock! series of "Escape Room" style puzzle games: <https://www.spacecowboys.fr/unlock-english>. They're compact and a lot of fun to work together on, but not much replayabality.

For when I want something abstract/traditional, the Royal Game of Ur: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Game_of_Ur> suffices, it's like a dumber backgammon. It's just enough game.
thx for the list,
I already knew about your page, very cool
I think excel has named ranges, which is a little bit like what you're describing I guess.
Ask HN: How do you modify functions over 1000 lines long?
I recently started working at a startup whose code was developed under very intense business pressure. This combined with the attitude towards code needing to "work" and not code needing to be qualitative has lead to a messy codebase. One can argue that at least if the code _does_ work then it's ok, but we're dealing with many errors daily. Luckily we do have sentry and continuous deployment set-up (no CI though), so these errors can be fixed quickly when they are seen.

Needless to say, we don't have any tests.

The code is messy in most places, not all. We're working on improving the codebase, but I still feel like I'm not very well equipped to work in functions that has 10s of database queries, over 100 variables, nested if-statements, and if-statements with 5 or more checks all over the place.

I'm trying to learn testing, but under these circumstances it's still kind of difficult.

The positive side is that I do get a lot of time to read, research and learn, and I do get the freedom to try things out if they provide some form of benefit for us.

I consider myself a medior in terms of experience, this is my second job in programming.
Yeah, I've seen stuff carved into tiny, fragile microservices when the number of nodes was under ten. Stupid, IMO, and it took a stable service and made it a flaky mess. It was done because of dogmatic "It must be in containers in the cloud with microservices, because that is The Way(TM)". Literally there was an initiative to move everything possible to the cloud in containers with lots of microservices because one of the place's gurus got that religion. It increased complexity, decreased reliability and cost a lot of money for not much benefit.

Until you have well over 20 systems doing one thing/application, trying to treat bespoke services like cattle instead of pets is silly. It will also drive your ops people to drink, especially if it's done by "DevOps" that never get paged, and refer to your group in meetings with other companies as "just ops". (Yes, I'm still salty about it.)

Often I think it's "resume driven development", especially if the people pushing for it want to abandon all your existing tools and languages for whatever is "hot" currently.
How do you know? Did you see the metrics that were used and compare them with your bloodwork? This reads as low-effort anecdata.

TL;DR: Wow! ~9 million cores, 21 megawatts, >2x the performance of #2 but pulling less power (compared to 30MW). #3 is 0.15EFLOPS, but also 3MW.
To wit, a personal anecdote:

My tiny company is torn between throwing out our ruby code and trying to hire more ruby developers. Our senior ruby guy is leaving, and the one senior candidate we had accepted, then later rejected, our offer. Of the other interviews we have had, candidates were asking for too much (i.e. over $200k base salary) and often barely qualified as a senior, or were simply too inexperienced to replace the person who was leaving.

I'm about one more round of interviews from throwing in the towel and doing a hulkamania hackathon in a new language. The existing code really isn't great either (deprecated gems, lots of accidental complexity, etc) so it is almost tempting to think it would work.
