They could sign up for a CTI (Cyber Threat Intelligence) service with a security company. Basically, they send you notifications about CVEs and related stuff.

My client isn't exactly a "small manufacturing business", but they do subscribe to such a service, and they did have the Java issue in a parent process. They have a security guy who's the main one expected to look at these, but he's not the one operating anything directly, so he can't be expected to know every last random lib that's used.

So when the Log4j2 issue came up, for example, he was aware there was "a Java issue" but had no automated way of knowing which systems, if any, were affected.

It's not either/or. The methods have different tradeoffs so they are useful in different applications. E.g. methane reforming has the potential to turn natural gas resources into low emissions hydrogen.
Yes, with some kind of monadic-like control flow (either actual monads or even Rust's ? macro), those can be also achieve this workflow pretty well.

Edit to add: I still think exceptions are better in practice, as you also get a stack trace when the failure happens, whereas Either and ? don't really help track down the error unless you add code to create a manual "stack trace".

This is great for finding rabbit holes to fall into. The Kallikak family https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kallikak_Family is one of the first.

Typing can certainly be more productive. However, it can also be error prone. You might checkout Blockly (the lower level language used to implement the current version of Scratch).

A lot of the stuff we type out in code is syntax and templates. Like this loop:

for (let i = 0;
i < cars.length;
i++) {
text += cars[i] + "<br>";
}

Starting out, it’s hard to tell if the program syntax is wrong or if the program logic is wrong (just getting the snippet above to look close to right on HN is a pain :-)). Blockly makes that easier by mistake proofing the syntax so the programmer can focus on the logic, variable names, etc.
Like most apocalyptic myths, this is probably based on a historic local/regional disaster.

Ask HN: Do any of you “space out” when you are programming or cogitating?
Serious question. Family close to me has been diagnosed with epilepsy due to Absence Seizures [1]. The more I learn about it, the more I'm like "snap" that's what I go through myself when I am working out the logic to a problem I'm coding. Maybe I'm just projecting and making everything about me. I do understand that some epilepsy syndromes can be familial. When I was younger it was like "look he's spaced out". And someone would chime in "no he's processing". Is this just me (and my family)? Or is it more widespread?

That's how I see it too. Very creative!
When a supermarket is only a 10 minute walk away (20 minutes round trip), you just go more often and carry smaller amounts. Even if you suddenly needed 30 bottles of seltzer in the same day, you can just walk there and back twice.

I had it about 2 weeks before I was eligible to get a vaccine, in my 30s. As an active Crossfitter, I am (was?) much healthier than the majority of my peers. Yet it nearly killed me with double pneumonia, and I couldn't taste or smell for 7 months. Even so, I hate masks and haven't gotten any booster shots. I'm just so weary from everything covid related. I'll get an annual shot along with the flu shot, but otherwise I'm done with covid forever.
Caltech grad here. Having worked with a couple of MIT newgrads just after graduation, I think the biggest contributor to the difference in attitudes is the degree to which Caltech undergrads are isolated from the world during undergrad.

At Caltech, you pretty much never interact with any source of external validation. Because the graduating class size is only ~250, most companies don't actively recruit you so you never get the feeling that your skillset is in demand; the few companies that do, are often highly specialized or excessively selective so you're either a poor fit if you lack the specialization or you come to believe that the hiring standards are a lot higher worldwide than they are. As someone in startups, it feels like VC firms actively thirst after MIT students during undergrad to establish relationships with the students there, but pretty much no student at Caltech will ever interact with a VC prior to graduation. While Caltech may be reputable among a certain demographic, it's likely your extended family, especially if you're an immigrant, hasn't heard of the school or it's reputation. And even despite it's location in the SoCal Research triangle, most students basically never leave campus or interact with the broader LA community or even Pasadena.

The end result is that with no external sources of feedback to inflate your self-worth, you end up measuring yourself within the institute, which is among the smartest collections of people in the world. There's pretty much no way to come out of that measurement process without being humbled. A lot of Caltech newgrads entering into the workplace lack the "arrogance", because it's the first time they're getting feedback to help them realize that actually they're not dumb.
> There's no actual storage density information, is there? Nothing in KJ/m^3 units.

Even if there was (to be honest, didn't read the journal article) this is something that can easily be hacked. Energy storage research papers regularly hack energy density numbers by reporting the kJ/cc values of a tiny (like order 1 g) fleck of nanoparticle dust, which totally misrepresents the physics that matters are scale (i.e. in an EV).

Scaling up stuff is hard, including when you're moving from micron scale to cm scale.

This seems a bit similar to how oxygen concentrators work. Zeolites absorb nitrogen under pressure, oxygen-rich mixture is pumped out, zeolites release the nitrogen, which is then pumped out, repeat cycle.
But hackaday and the like seem to do just fine. Granted lots of puff pieces and reviews. But byte/DDJ/Radio Electronics, etc had lots of ad's too.

So, where is the cost? People seem to be willing to submit quality articles just for the exposure it gives them. And surely its possible to set a price on a magazine that can play for printing+postage sufficiently to make a small profit too.

The problem I see with hackaday and similar is the lack of quality curation. Make magazine has this problem x100. AKA, no one older than 6 really enjoys an article on how to make snow cones, when they are looking for build plans for a 300 BPS modem. I learned a lot of my early programming skills reading Doctor Dobbs and Nibble back when they had articles on data compression, or whatever.

In a way its why I read hacker news too, the book recommendations, and articles like this one are a pretty good replacement, although again one has to filter the noise, and the temptation to post things rather than write code is much larger.

So, I return to the original premise, maybe what is needed is a good editor/curator who removes the useless noise and slims it down to articles on how to write compilers, JPEG decompressions, and the like.
You can have framebuffer applications running without X. Not really much different than DOS other than the kernel is still mediating hardware access. Notably, you can build Qt apps that run without X.
This is the last time I’ll entertain you on this line of comment:

the gold standard test to see if someone is infected with sars-cov-2 would involve doing sequencing of a sample from the airways and potentially also stools. A PCR test is close enough, for the sake of argument.

Good luck trying to do these tests every time you want to allow someone in a building. The task is to find another requirement that is of practical value: go.

Cheap 2.5GbE Poe Unmanaged Switch
That needs a few conditions to be accepted:

- an isolated process which failure doesn’t cascade other part’s failure

- as parent mentionned, where and what failed needs to be super clear

- people are available to timely react to the error, so a rerun will succeed

Failing any of the above, and you’ll need extensive and probably complex error handling that can at least help the system work in a degraded state until the error source is handled.

In my experience, it’s really the last part that motivates engineers to try to deal with the maximum error cases automatically instead of having to deal with them weekends after weekends.

I live in a hot place that is getting hotter. What bothers me is the architecture of new homes that are sited poorly and make no effort to use the design of the home to control hot / cold. A great example of this is homes across North Africa and the Levant where there is a central column through which wind blows and brings natural cooling into the home - think "whole house fan" but without any mechanization. These types of designs and thought into how a house is sited on its lot make so much sense but instead we get cheaply constructed mass tract housing. It would be very curious to know just how much energy use could be reduced by different materials and design.

1. Yes, you still struggle.
2. If you are in control of the architecture, you can mitigate some of the most destructive aspects of scrum.
3. Automate things as much as possible. With scripts/etc.
4. Learn as many productivity tools as you can. Editor plugins, etc.
5. Scrum is a kobayashi maru that is designed to get you fired. Like kirk, the only way to win is to cheat at it. Sandbag/overestimate as much as possible, and use the surplus time for learning/making better tools to get your work done faster.
6. A lot of people have been saying these things about scrum. Even senior people have a problem with it. See for yourself.

Ask HN: How to deal with children's online habits?
Or, more generally, how to give children freedom and privacy, yet also be there to help them understand the lessons the world is about to teach them?

I have this preconceived notion that I don't want to violate my children's privacy. It's very tempting, of course, to passively monitor e.g. their spending or online habits, but I don't want to.

(As a concrete example, I know a some people get very detailed reports from the daycare about what their children have been up to. I'm not interested in that -- when I want to know what the daycare experience is like, I personally spend a day at the daycare.

This gives me much more nuance than a report ever would, but it also feels more respectful toward my child that they're allowed a part of their life outside of my supervision. But the reason I can do that is because there are other helpful adults at the daycare. That won't be the case everywhere, unfortunately.)

So I want them to have privacy, but I would also want to pick up on problems early -- either their own bad behaviour, or if they're victim's of someone else's bad behaviour.

Some more concrete questions in the same vein:

- What fraction of their online time should I sit with them?

- Do I play all video games with them or should they have some of "their own"?

- Do I give them the ability to do online purchases?

- Do I allow them to use up all of their money even as a mistake, or do I set up a limit?

- Do I limit their "screen time" (hate that term) or will that prevent them from interacting with their friends in the way they would want to?

This depends on maturity levels, of course, but I'm looking for generalisations. My children are 2 and 0.2 years old now, so this won't be relevant in a while but I like to be prepared and if you have thoughts regarding any maturity level, please share.

The reason I ask you HN folks is (a) that you are likely to understand my concern for privacy and personal integrity, and (b) that I've received very useful and thought-out child-related advice here before.

----

I'm also skipping a bunch of privilege-related questions like "who the hell can take a day off to spend it at the daycare?" Or, perhaps more importantly, "what determines how much time you spend online with your children may not be what's appropriate, but how much time you can spare for it?"

And yeah, both of those are problems for myself as well -- I'm interested in all creative solutions here, also that help work around such problems.
Someone please build a version of Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine using this.
Right so I had similar vein of thoughts years ago when I thought China was in a real estate bubble and did think that the government can just make certain type of investors take the loss and move on. However, that's only if the collapse is only in real estate. What I'm seeing right now with China is a death spiral, namely

bad policies such as zero covid, tech crackdown, or not resolving the root of real estate crisis -> investor (domestic and foreign) loss of confidence -> companies leaving or shut down -> rising unemployment or reduced salary -> debt bubble gets bigger -> bad policies.

This death spiral is enhanced by demographics collapse which is happening now, not 30 or 15 or 10 years ago, as well as nationalistic behaviors that isolates China. Not to mention global inflation and consumer demand collapse.

In my list of things I also didn't mention

* 20% unemployment rate for new grads

* layoffs from big tech companies

* 70% of China's economy is real estate related, which means China will take an even bigger impact from real estate collapse than other countries that have less % of economy in real estate.

* collapse in demand for real estate due to fast aging population

* 20% of built real estate stays empty (not even rented) due to investment vehicles purpose
It's funny that somebody commented how if you change sex to skin color in your comment, suddenly it sounds very interesting. And then deleted it later.

So, is it fine to apply group punishment based on sex? Shall we apply group punishments in other areas where there's correlation?

IIRC certain sexual orientation also have disproportionally rates of pedophilia. Shall we highlight that and then ban them from anything close to children?
It is easier to build a factory and build homes with components that are standard sized and them ship that out on to the site. This also makes it much easier to have electrical and plumbing done nearly completely (with the final hookups on site) in a place where you can centralize the tasks to ensure a constant stream of work.

The heavy machinery on site is less of a problem than needing to move all the tradesmen around, down times, and the logistics of sourcing and moving the materials rather than the product.

There was an electric draft fan on the coal stove we had, I don't know if this is needed or makes it easier to burn.

Are you saying you're able to perceive things or process your code during these moments? From what I can see in browsing around, the term itself seems connected to a straight up loss of consciousness.

I see that absence seizures are also mistaken for not paying attention, or daydreaming. But really, these are petit mal seizures yielding significant EEG measurements, do I have that right?

If so, that's got to be quite a tempting overlap for a latch-on self diagnosis when other terminologies aren't bringing the needed satisfaction. Especially if it seems like there is some deficit in the overall subjective work outcome. I hope that access to EEGs is pretty straightforward.

I had an EEG done by a professor of neuroscience (for insights into how my brain lit up during various tasks) and it didn't seem like it had to be anything super clinical, so, fingers crossed for those who really need to get those graphs checked out and discover what's behind the lapses.

In my case the professor challenged me to work on using my frontal lobe more, because I use the back side of my brain gobs, I guess. I did a lot of work on correcting the connections so to speak, and I have to say it has helped a lot. I also developed my own meditation technique to build on the fact that I have more ready access to the non-frontal stuff and I find it really relaxing.
I suspect that they will "merely" need to instill enough propaganda and "brainwashing" politically onto academia such that those who have the knowledge and skill would not go against the CCP.

This effectively restricts the talent pool - those who are smart are likely able to see thru any propaganda. And those that are smart are also more capable of emigrating overseas where you make more money anyway.

So it's not about stifling, but more about slowness. But with a large enough population, even a smaller % of talent is still a huge number.
Dict_values is a readonly set, not a list. Sets are generally unique, non indexable and unordered.

Since dict keys are generally intended to be unique, this is a much better data structure, because very often you just want to check if x in d.keys(), being a o(1) rather than linear search into a list -twice, because you first have to construct the list also!

It’s also more of a set-like view into the original key-set. This is why it shows up as dict_keys rather than set. You wouldn’t want every piece of code that simply does for k in d.keys() to first make a copy of the entire dataset before starting the iteration. Beginners will use these functions all over just like that, even though you can simply do for k in d. Or if k in d. Preventing such footguns is worth the inconvenience of having to convert to list(d.keys()) for the rare case of when it’s absolutely needed.

I’ve also never seen any code that need to get the first item out of a dict, what does that even mean? Dicts are mappings. Better optimize both syntax and performance for the more common use cases. Only use case I can see is an LRU cache but for that there are better ways, like @lru_cache or OrderedDict.pop. Where that’s needed, copying the whole dict into a new array would also be extremely inefficient.
