The UK government is changing the full name ('State Title') only, not the short name ('Country Name'). The UK gov follows the standards set by the Permanent Committee on Geographical Names for British Official Use. This body includes the BBC, Royal Geographical Society, etc. So I suppose the BBC will continue to use Turkey.

"Turkey; Republic of Turkey changed to Turkey; Republic of Türkiye"

There is the precedent of Burma/Myanmar, "Country name remains Burma reflecting common British English usage". Similarly for Cabo Verde, "Cape Verde had circulated a request for this form to be used, though UK has retained the common English usage for the country name".

However, it did recently change Swaziland to Eswatini and I know which one I'd vote for as being common usage.

The ISO codes are not always adopted verbatim. e.g. The UK gov list does not include Taiwan. ISO plays both sides, giving it a country code but calling it a province of China. On the other hand the UK does include Kosovo which is not an ISO country but is recognised as one by approx 50% of nations including the UK.

Other countries have similar national naming committees to the UK's PCGN, you can see a list here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/ungegn/nna/nna-committees/
Worker protection laws in Germany have a long history and were first established in the 19th century, not exactly an era associated with socialism.

I think if you had said something like "I find this a very clever and funny comment, well done" it would have been better received, but I'm also just guessing.
I've always thought that it would be super valuable if you could mark groups of columns to be stored together. This would move Postgres from pure row-oriented to somewhere between row and column oriented. So for example if you have some rarely accessed columns you could mark those to be stored out of line. IDK if TOAST could be reused here or if it should be more like a different table with an implicit join.

It's unclear if the authors actually responsibly disclosed this, although they did make some attempts at contacting Honda, it's unclear how long they waited for a reply.

> What does Honda think about this Rolling-PWN Bug?

> We have searched through the Honda official website, but we can not find any contact info for report Vulnerability. Seems Honda motor DOES NOT have a department to deal with security related issue for their products. And a person who works at HONDA has told us "The best way to report the Honda vulnerability is to contact customer service". Therefore, we filed a report to Honda Customer service, but we have not get any reply yet.

> In addition, we found an article from Bleeping-Computer (https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/honda-bug-let...), which Seems that Honda does not care about security issues anyway :(

Hope the authors are either anonymous enough or in a jurisdiction they can't be sued for making this public.
older people tend to be less employable
The TV show Silicon Valley also satirises the aggressive, egotistical CEO (a character called Gavin Belson).

Belson spends some time at a Buddhist retreat which seems to impart nothing from his experience. The attraction to Buddhist ideas are only at shallow, surface level.

He also employs a full-time spiritual adviser. Even the adviser looks out for opportunities advantageous to him and manipulate situations.

It's a cynical (but honest?) look at personality traits in tech.
This is perfectly timed for me: I just had surgery Friday to reattach my biceps tendon. The bandage comes off today. Of course it won’t work right away, so now I will wonder if I needed it. But at least now, outside the bandage, the muscle is back where it is supposed to be.

I did tear a meniscus and MCL a couple of years ago and the surgeon just shrugged and said “these things usually heal on their own — want to wait and see?” So perhaps these studies have had an effect.
> "But, you're scaremongering! See, I put this Debian USB pendrive in, hit F1, hit cursor down three times, tab, down five times, space, F12, and I can still boot it fine!"

Because yes, one extra option in UEFI settings is the end of Linux on the Desktop. People definitely do not change anything else in UEFI settings ever as Linux users and it's significantly more complex than before. /s

But that's not true, is it? Changing DG or SB toggle is no more difficult than setting the system's clock or boot order. These things are also described in the manual. People installing any OS fresh are likely to have the skillset necessary to do so.

> Back when all this Secure Boot was announced, we already said that its main purpose seemed to be to make booting of non-MS operating systems more complicated, rather than security enforcement.

This is not Secure Boot per se, it is Device Guard. It's quite misleading to call it Secure Boot. If you read up on what Device Guard tries to achieve you should be able to see how it as a whole does provide noteworthy security improvements.

> Now, your Debian pendrive will not boot on this Lenovo PC, even if MS-signed.

*Please* do go on how you're not scaremongering here or in the previous thread. That sentence is literally false.

It's slightly different (but only slightly) in the CPU case in that the disabling they're doing is a special case of an operation they have to do anyway. I don't know if it's the case for the specific 3 and 6 core AMD chips you're referring to, but it's common practice for that sort of CPU to be a 4 or 8-core chip where one or more core has failed validation. Cores that have failed testing then get disabled, and the CPU is bucketed into a lower grade but is still sold as a working unit. All AMD would have been doing here is using the disabling process which must already exist to intentionally nerf working cores because the yields they were getting in the various buckets were too good for the market conditions.

I'm not sure what BMW are thinking with the seat heaters. I suspect someone thinks they can make a saving by reducing variation in seat construction and that saving offsets the additional material costs. All the software/subscription/after-market nonsense flows from that, but the fundamental design driver is, I would bet, manufacturing complexity.

Happyness is mostly how you yourself perceive things and less dependent on external circumstances. I would work more on own pshychology and perception of things. Our brains are riddled with biases and filters, it helps a great deal to know about them and to identify your own fallacies.
One of the founders here. Firstly, thanks so much HN for the feedback over the last few weeks! We have been growing steadily and a large part of our growth is due to your feedback.

Today’s launch was born out of an idea from one such feedback point - AWS cost alerts are delayed (sometimes for up to 24 hours) and cause nightmares for founders. We understand this and have faced this problem ourselves. That’s why we decided to ship CostGuard, an easy way to get alerted when your AWS costs skyrocket. So that you can focus on building and not be unnecessarily worried about AWS costs.

This is how it works:

1 - Connect Your AWS Account

2 - Deploy your stack on AWS with Digger (it allows us to track the infrastructure changes)

3 - Get alerts in your email inbox when your costs increase significantly

Would be super grateful for your feedback in the comments, this is what gives us direction and a roadmap to building a better DX at Digger. Thanks.

And what about object-fit?

Best I can tell, the article works if you are 100% certain that all the images in the srcset have the same aspect ratio.

With, for example WordPress, that is often not the case.
That's from earlier this year (CVE-2022-27254), hopefully they changed their mind as of late (however, seems unlikely). If not after that incident became public, maybe by now when even more vulnerabilities are becoming public.

Never had a problem with Angular DI. (Had lots of problems with DI in JVM land - with Scala, had endless problems with module loading in python, and so on.)

For sure, I won't clap for how great modern JS bundle sizes are, but I found that most of the time what dependency we use matters a lot more for bundle size than how I load and what and where.

> I still have a tree-shake and keep bundles as small as possible mindset.

I also aim for this. Though just recently on the current project we're working on reducing downloaded content size happened when I finally went ahead and compressed the unnecessarily large background images, fonts. (Plus edited the CSS to prefer the smaller font file.)

So all in all, I think over the years I positioned myself to work on smaller projects where all the biggest concerns were completely outside the frontend library, and I wanted something with built-in TS, and so Angular became the trusted choice :)

Thanks for the link! (haven't got time to read it yet :D)
How to Test Side-Effects in Node.js
Yeah, that's the point. I think the SDK is not that helpful when running code in the backend (SSR).

What frustrates me is that I don't get what's wrong with just using the traditional http-only secure cookie backed by a server side session. That just works, and it's one of the most safe ways to do it. Even banks do it that way. All the JWT temporary refresh token whatever sounds like somebody was just bored and wanted to have fun. Sorry, I was pretty burned out about this. So much that we ended up swapping it for something else.

I don't do this as an inventory for insurance or even 'the final count' of my stuff, but to save the stories / anecdotes attached to my most beloved items. An example here: https://objet.cc/kev/travel-chess-board

It makes me reflect on what I truly care about [re: physical things]; which dramatically increases my awareness when I intent to buy something new. Where does that 'desire' come from? Why should I buy this? Why that one instead of that one? etc.
Is there a link to more detailed technical description?

From the description it almost sounds like validation for counter synchronization is separate from validation for command execution and it
doesn't take into account requirement of counter in the message being bigger than counter in last valid message. Thus allowing to rollback the counter and making previously recorder messages valid again.
We actually implemented verification schemes similar to this for account holders at rsync.net.

One example:

- Destructive actions to an rsync.net account (manual deletions, account cancellation, etc.) have an "email age" flag. If someone is requesting something dangerous from a just changed email, support looks very closely at the request and sends a heads-up to both the old and new email addresses.

We also have some relief mechanisms for the occasions people get locked out of their lives by (google, et. al) - if a user can prove control over an rsync.net account by `touch`-ing filename of random hash we provide, we can start a reclamation process based on proving the ability to destroy the account anyway.

One can only hope that it's these sort of events which slowly pushes to having more legislation and responsibility to the provider of digital services (i.e., Honda) if things go wrong (e.g., goods inside or even vehicle stolen).

While I am 99% sure the politicians will write crappy legislation, over time it should become better and ensure that the purveyor of compromised SW is responsible for their sloppy work. It took decades but seatbelts, crash tests etc etc made us all massively safer when driving and we probably need the same minimum across some digital services.

Since were talking hundred-year timescales, wouldnt it be better to drill deep into the moon, set off a massive nuclear device inside the moons crust and build this thing in the resulting cavity?

At least we would have a good use for all these nukes
Hacking the Anker PowerPort for Backpacking
Yes, obviously. A lot of trauma suffered by people on the spectrum does not come from their autism, but from how other people assume that everyone else is like them. Reading faces is not an essential skill that everyone needs to learn in order to operate in a healthy society, the only reason people who lack that skill have troubles is because it is expected from them by others to have it. If we raise a generation where a significant percentage of people don't develop this skill very well, we may end up with a society that doesn't expect others to rely on skills they haven't developed, making everyone's life easier.
But fluids have surface tension.
Not really as GDPR has specific provisions for governments to collect data for national security/defence, prevention/investigation of crimes, etc . So they did not have to retroactively change anything as it was written into the law from the beginning.
Long term cycling or backpacking forces this too. I work remotely, and resolving to very minimal lifestyles. I recently gave away all of my micro USB cables to replace with two cables and one 60W full-size USB output. It can now charge all of my devices apart from the laptop, which can charge another item if I'm in a hurry.

Emotional attachment sure can suck though. Like gifts from loved ones, etc. Not for documenting purposes, but I found help photographing the items so I can preserve those memories. It also helps that most printed material fade away (like thermal printed receipts), so a photograph helps a lot too. I store them on Google Photos (using 100 GB package), so they are searchable by location, text, etc.
Looks like they published various videos of them exploiting the vulnerability in public space. Supposedly, OSINT techniques could at least uncover these locations.
> the fundamental design driver is, I would bet, manufacturing complexity

I think that recurring monthly revenue is also highly appreciated, especially considering how other industries (game, movie) are moving in spite of manufacturing complexity.
Not a fan either. But when working with WordPress it takes extra work to ensure all the images in the srcset have the same aspect ratio.

So the only way to ensure cover is object-fit.

Note: this is also useful for background images in the sense totoo often the same large HD+ image is served to mobile devices.

There is a total order on (almost) all data types in the beam. This is useful for arbitrary sorting and comparison of different types.

I say almost because floats and their equivalent integer are different items but they are equal in the total order. In practice this is fine, and I have never heard of this causing a problem.

I mean does any normal sane person without mental issues/complex buy BMW car outside Europe? Because here in Europe it's exemption to see normal person owning this brand, only competition being still way behind is Audi.

I taught my kids to be extra careful when they see BMW car, that's like huge red flag when you see it on the road. Told them they are assigning these cars to bad drivers. You can find them in other brands as well, but with BMW it's guaranteed.
CockroachDB has column families which we use in a very few cases. We have some fairly wide tables with a few stats columns that are updated normally a few times per second, but can go up to hundreds of times per second.
It's not the labour itself, it's the variability in that labour. Complexity has a cost over and above the raw labour costs, and I can well believe that someone's spreadsheet tells them that the additional parts and labour is cheaper in terms of both supply chain management and reliability than retaining that degree of freedom in that particular supplier relationship.
Is there any Europe-based PaaS currently operating, that are noteworthy? Most companies seems to be US-based.
This seems to be MS's response to a rather serious mistake in GRUB2 - a howler, I'd say.

I've never liked GRUB2 much. The configuration seems to freely mix executable code and data, which makes me tremble at the prospect of altering it. And I find it much harder to understand than GRUB Legacy (and that's saying something).
I don't agree that there's a good argument for ignoring the class sizes for half the year to decrease data collection burden. The data they're ignoring is of utmost importance to the statistic (well to the statistic as basically everyone will understand it since no one reads "average class size" and thinks "average class size of only half the classes").

In any case, the quality of the argument doesn't really matter. If the number is being gamed so trivially and yet US News continues to ignore spring classes, then the restriction has gone from bizarre and unnecessary to actively malicious. US News is basically colluding with the universities to engage in fraud.

There are some risk factors that really change once women go through menopause. This is directly related to hormones. Basically, some risk factors that weren't issues in women pre-menopause start to mirror the risk factor that men face. The biggest one I can think of is heart health. Before menopause, less risk. Afterwards, the risk is more equal to men's risks.

And granted, I'm talking generally. I'm not a doctor, simply female and know these risks will change for me. And I also am simplifying here: Male/female is used in a general sense and I really don't know how hormones affect transfolks' risks (for example).
