My guess is this. People like you might enjoy a softer form of porn, but are you going to click through to the ads that they're using to monetize?

Free online porn is not optimized for people's tastes. It's optimized to attract the people who are so obsessed that they're going to click through and actually buy products that are advertised at some point.
> to put it another way, they felt obligated to shame people into not seeking treatment, in hopes of not having to admit that they didn't know how to help their patients.

On the contrary, shaming people into not seeking treatment is how they were helping them. Prevention is the best cure, after all.
So…… 25 sq miles. Let’s assume a 5 mile x 5 mile grid. Let’s put a bus route every half mile. That’s 20 bus routes. Let’s run a bus on each route every 15 minutes…. The buses run at an average speed of say 20 mph. So each bus takes 20 minutes to traverse the route in one direction. You would need 2 buses per route. That’s 40 buses. Let’s say it costs $100 per hour to run the bus. (Googled it). So that’s $4000/hr to run the entire system. Let’s run the system 16 hours a day. 4000 * 16 = $64000 per day. $23 million dollars a year. The 51,000 population would have 17,000 cars. 17,000 * $5000 = $85 million. So it would be much cheaper to have a bus system….

Phone security threats in 2022 and how to avoid them
I haven't played a lot in a while, but my first thought is what you say in the second line: you're the big stack, you're heads up at the end of a tournament, you want to keep pressure on your opponent, and then once you even hit something like two-pair, seems like you want to make them have even less if they fold, or get a good shot at ending the game if they call all-in.

Is this outdated in general? From the talk below about GTO-and-heads-up is the assumption that it'd be dangerous now to assume anyone who's still in at that point doesn't have something better than you?
It’s too dang slippery. Also, children
They are reliable, easy to learn, low power, have an open source toolchain (and multiple open source programmers), a wide range of package and feature combos, TONS of examples and libraries (even without Arduino), require few external components... on and on and on. If they fit the needs of a project they are quite pleasant to work with and not every project needs a powerful MCU. I dunno if I'd pick them for a large scale product because of unit costs, but I use them all the time for hobby and even some limited production work-related stuff when parts costs are a rounding error.
Cheap, at any price. Instead we subsidize cars at many, many times that.

You can think of everything you pay for the car you are obliged to maintain as a tax you pay as subsidy for cars. With good public transportation, even massively expanded, you would keep most of that.

IT people have nothing to do with it. They just peck at webmin

That's such a simplistic view of the system. Tons of homes and real estate have been and are being purchased as investment to rent out. This combined with zoning and other restrictions on building new housing has severely restricted supply.

It’s possible for a compromised payment terminal to record magnetic stripe card data. These kinds of payments essentially do not exist in developed countries.

It’s not possible for a compromised payment terminal to do anything interesting with other kinds of cards.
Consider this C code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
size_t sz = 0;
void *unused = NULL;
for(;;) {
int n = 0;
void *tmp = realloc(unused, ++sz);
if(!tmp) break;
unused = tmp;
puts("Enter a number and I'll double it, or enter 0 to end:");
scanf("%d", &n);
if(!n) break;
printf("%d\n", 2*n);
}
free(unused);
}

Do you think it contains a memory leak? If so, note that Valgrind disagrees: "All heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible". If not, then can you give a short example of some JavaScript code that does contain a memory leak?

> Last I checked (few months ago) the CDC in the US was still counting COVID deaths as any deceased with active COVID infection.

This is not at all an accurate summary of the CDC’s Cause of Death reporting guidelines for Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss/vsrg/vsrg03-508.pdf

If you die in a car accident with Covid-19 in your system, the UCOD is massive trauma from car accident, not “Covid-19”. The CDC reporting guidelines make it clear that Covid only rises to the level of UCOD if it meets the criteria of “ (a) the disease or injury which initiated the train of morbid events leading directly to death”
Cool, you've targeted ARM on a common SoC and a desktop PC. Now do sh2, sh4, m68k or even xtensa with Zig with a standard build.

Thank you for your thoughts.

> The things blocking creativity are a combination of the software ecosystem being unready to deprofessionalize itself and exit the industrialized "app" model

Could you explain what you mean here? Not sure I quite follow.

So one example of an app that does allow you to do creative things effectively is grageband on iOS. It's an amazing tool for sketching musical ideas, which can later be more closely refined at a full desktop setup, so in a sense I agree that smartphone software can't be seen as a "complete editing tool", though it can be used much earlier in the creative process. DAWs are pretty complex tools and if you can get a decent version of a DAW on a phone, I see no reason why other tools shouldn't be possible.

I guess one way of looking at it would be to compare an artist's sketchbook vs what they produce on canvas. One is small, portable and allows the artist to capture moments as come up. The canvas however is much larger, essentially static and requires long, painstaking work to get right. I am sure that I am not the first person think of this analogy, but that seems like the level of creation that is suitable for the form factor.

> turning the phone into a portable scanner or audio recorder

Sure, but they also use the caluclator, spirit level etc, these are all pretty established tools, just made more readily accessible, rather than harnessing all that computing and visualisation power a smartphone can offer.
10 minutes is likely too long, at that point it would be possible to execute and memorise a full solution during inspection. The time would come down to who can make ~40 turns fastest from memory.
He posted a correction (at the bottom) that they are running Windows 7, so it's a marginally better situation.
BINGO!!!

The work has to be well-defined and expectations clearly set, but we all know that it's rarely the case that the work is well-defined and that expectations are clearly set. What you end up with is an expensive disaster - and you can't correct from it either: you'll be black-listed in your community and people will be very leery of ever working for you again.

These lessons have been learned and re-learned for the past 30 years now - going back as far as Yourdon's Decline and Fall of the American Programmer - which was published in 1992.

Not to dismiss the achievements of Cuba, but the GHI seems to exclude Western Europe and the Anglosphere.
The first step in vetting a new dependency for me is always documentation (not just taken at face value but also how well it corresponds to reality). The more complex the functionality and the larger the scope, the more it matters.

First, since writing a library is a lot about design, and design is about communication, documentation provides many indirect but useful signals. Second, no project (whether dev-to-dev or dev-to-end-user) exists at a discrete point in time, and as every piece evolves documentation will be critical for making it manageable, especially if the project is not something done for hire.
It is a product of deliberate policy, so of course it's true. The policy was to drive working people out of cities and into cars, and it worked. You are living their policy.
What are your ideas for improving public transit? Because the way I see it, public transit suffers from issues that are hard to overcome and are exacerbated by globalized societies.

Public transit simply can't take you everywhere. Even when I e lived in areas with dense bus routes, how one would get to a stop was often a question. Buses are relatively slow and impede traffic, especially in larger cities.

More trains would be nice, but they share many issues with buses, including the fact that they become de facto homeless and mental health shelters on wheels. The only place where I have lived where this wasn't a problem was New Zealand, and that was 18 years ago, so I don't know if that's still the case. I always give up on public transit after seeing enough acts of human degradation and fights breaking out. Let's not forget the smell.

Cars and self driving tech will always have an edge over public transit. We might as well not waste too much time on public transit, but make sure it is adequate while making car-driving more sustainable.

In fact, I would rather prioritize making cities bikeable and walkable more expanding bus service. For some cities it's pretty much too late, but for ones that are kind of spread out there is no reason why there can't be dedicated bikeways.
The reason I'm calling it a bad comparison is that you don't (typically) get into a car with the intention of killing someone.

If every firearm owner decided that they were going to step outside and kill someone, millions would be dead.

Deaths resulting from improper operation isn't something you can reasonably compare to using a firearm with lethal intent.

This is an interesting difference because I'm a man and at bare minimum I need to see that the people doing it are really into it. I need enthusiasm, but prefer to see or read the development of how it got to such a boiling point. I also like teasing better, sex is a mind game, you play it with your brain, and it lasts more than 3 minutes that way too.

No, it’s noticeably slower than Makefiles on present-year hardware. This degrades the developer experience regardless of how cheap compute and storage are. (This is mostly Docker’s fault and not inherent to containers, though.)

But still, it is better than getting deliberately infected.

And sure enough current vaccines are not a viable strategy, but it tells you nothing about covid vaccines as a whole. Researchers are not standing still, new vaccines are being researched, and even if we can only make short lived vaccines, it doesn't mean that vaccines are not a viable strategy. Flu vaccines are a viable strategy, they save many lives despite a rather low effectiveness and requiring yearly injections.
Alcohol is not really carbon neutral. Plants don't produce alcohol. They produce sugar. The farming and transport also produces emissions and you lose a ton of energy on the way.

Uniform abstractions are necessarily leaky -- the adoption of the k8s standardization, such as it is, papers over implementation details that serious operators require visibility into.
They’re also zero-carbon which is fairly important these days.
Even when people don't read the docs, it's often not a matter of unwillingness to - but them not expecting relevant docs to exist in the first place, or being unable to find them with the keywords they can think of.

Being able to link said docs saves on having to re-explain everything from scratch when asked questions - helping contextualize and give background to a terser answer, assuming the docs don't answer the problem outright. They can also be helpful to refresh my own memory when explaining things, or when I'm trying to remember how to use my own code.
That's not much protection, as it pertains to "trusted computing," if it can be silently turned on or off as a bios setting.

Coming from apple this is rich. For years their phones were amongst the most slippery, not to mention their laptops, whose metal body are a scratch magnet.

If Apple were serious about this they’d make exteriors in materials like the Thinkpad and would give their phones softer plastic. As it stands, they have some of the most fragile devices in the industry.
Sounds like the devops team is really just an ops team and you’re not actually doing devops.
What's all this, then?

Programming was automated 65 years ago.

The "Formula Translating System" introduced in 1957 eliminated the drudgery of programming by allowing users to simply enter equations into a computer directly.

Specifying machine instructions and memory addresses by hand rapidly became a thing of the past.

Today, having a programming assistant is as quaint as a secretary.
As pointed out here, the huge assumption in this article is is:

> If someone installs malware on here - just insert a usb stick or use the recovery mode - then tada we have the next generation of atm skimming.

Which is just not how these payment devices work- they are entirely separate, they are sent a request to make a transaction, that transaction (and also likely the transaction request itself) occur entirely in a secure connection between someone like Verifone, and the device itself.

The PC has has no way to get those card details, only request a transaction and confirm a payment status as successful or failed.
Vitamin D supplementation worsens Alzheimer's progression
That is one lesson I've learned. Keep your mouth shut around doctors, counselors, therapists, teachers, and daycare workers. Treat them politely, professionally, and keep them at a distance and never give them details about your family. Gently coach your children to do the same, but not explicitly.

It's horrible, but it's too large of a risk to do anything else, regardless of how actually pleasant and healthy your families environment may be. Assume that every fact you give any of them about your children will be misunderstood, interpreted as uncharitably as possible, taken out of context, permanently recorded, and distributed to hostile strangers to judge.
He's also the founder and executive director of the Skeptics Society (www.skeptic.com). He talks a bit about weird mental states he got into after cycling for extended periods in his first book about pseudoscience, "Why People Believe Weird Things".

He's not without controversy, however, having been accused of sexual assault by multiple woman, has strong right wing political opinions (not that I'm suggesting that's necessarily wrong, but it does bring him controversy), and has a weirdly supportive relationship with Deepak Chopra, an infamous pseudoscience charlatan.

Google doesn’t care about political views. Just what makes them the most money. Too much victimizing amongst some people. If Google was actually on the left or liberal why would they time me again do shady anti consumer/customer stuff with their ads and why did they collude with anti poaching? most people are apolitical or in the middle. Those people are who Google is appeasing. So Google is harsher with people to the extreme. Regardless of which side you’re on.
Public transit in the US is drastically underfunded, in favor of massive subsidies for cars and arrangements requiring cars. Compare to much of Europe.
I love Hanabi. It is a cooperative card game, where you're not allowed to look at your own hand. Communication between players is constrained to things like pointing to all your partner's blue cards and saying "these cards are blue". What makes it deep is not only considering "what did my partner just tell me", but also "why did my partner tell this now". Indeed all sorts of wacky conventions are possible.

It plays well online if you can arrange to play with the same people repeatedly.

Note for others reading this thread, "fewest moves in an hour" is a WCA official event which is the natural conclusion when taking inspection time to the extreme.

FiPay (which is one of the pieces of software you can run with Verifone terminals) can be configured to return a credit card number back, but, it's only for legacy point of sales applications that need to have a number for whatever reason.

Even after moving everything to our Verifone vault, we still had those fields in our point of sales database, even if all of the numbers were '4111 1111 1111 1111' and the expiration dates were 2099+. We would pass the "proper" things down for the receipt as text fields (AID/TID/etc) to be printed on the receipt and stored with the transaction log.
Three machines with 4GB of RAM for $100? I don't know where you rent your servers but that's ridiculous. You can easily get that kind of compute for a third or lower.

You won't get a private LAN (so you'll need some firewall rules on the hoster side) and you'll have to do some setup to get everything served up on the right public IP address(es), but you don't need a dedicated load balancer product. Unless you expect your virtual servers to go down randomly, I suppose.

I've set up k0s on Oracle's free service to mess with. It doesn't need nearly as much as 12GiB of RAM. Give it 500MiB per machine to be happy and it _should_ run fine with 10.5GiB to spare unless you're adding tons of overlays and additional services on top of your applications.

As far as I can tell, the biggest cost with Kubernetes is maintaining the system and keeping up to date with the advancements and deprecations in the Kubernetes field. You can't just upgrade the Kubernetes version and expect everything to work, and every new concept that replaces anything old comes with Kubernetes layers of complexity.

I honestly don't know what so many companies are using all those resources Kubernetes provides for. I have a feeling people are so caught up in the "modern server management" world that they've forgotten how powerful and reliable a $25 VPS is these days.
