This is fascinating. Really cool to see a map of GPS signals on Earth and the site looks really good, too. Love the colors and interface! Awesome :)

Can anyone narrate any of the jammed signals? Like for instance what would be jamming in the ocean between Tripoli and Benghazi? Or what would be jamming around San Antonio, TX?
Better than huffing cat piss I guess

Because if you want your insurance to cover your loss, you have to report it.

If you were talking about petty theft, I'd agree with you, but for the most part, burglaries are nearly always reported.
note that there are data structures (eg b epsilon trees) that can guarantee a write amplification factor of log_b(disk size) for very large b (over 1000). this means that if you are willing to sacrifice a small amount of sequential read speed, you can guarantee write amplification of no more than 4 (with a few mb of RAM).

Does Bloomingdale count as an “enclave of wealth and privilege”? It wasn’t considered the safest neighborhood when I was growing up, but it’s considered very safe now. I don’t know what to tell you: I went to public schools here, have rode my bike my whole life, have rode the subway independently my entire life, &c. &c.. The “worst” thing that’s happened to me is being bugged for money on the street.

I’m not blind to some advantages I have: I’m tall, have a large frame, and a deep voice. But I was also a little kid for the first 18 years I was here, and nothing bad ever happened to me.

Yes, I really do live here. And yes, there are bike theft rings. But they’re not omnipotent, and they’re fundamentally opportunistic; I’ve never had any issues with any bike I’ve owned being stolen, and neither has anybody else in my family.
That's why you look at excess deaths. Covid increased excess deaths significantly. In other words, those unhealthy people would still be alive without covid, enjoying a longer life.

Maybe they’re just not that into you. Don’t overthink it. There doesn’t always have to be a specific weakness they could list that you could then work on. It might not even be anything to do with you or anything in your control.

Maybe you just don’t fit with what their team needs. You could be excellent, but be a duplicate of skills they have enough of already when they need something different.

Maybe you’re good, but it just so happens that someone did a god-tier interview that day and they have to choose between you for a single post.

Maybe you’re god-tier but the reason they were hiring has changed (ie a person they thought was leaving got persuaded to stay, headcount allocations suddenly changed, the project got cut etc).

Maybe it’s just a timing thing. You applied and before your application got processed they saw someone great and that person had a competing offer so they had to close them quickly. You might be better than the person they ran after but that’s life.

I am disappointed that the notions that fish and many other animals are unintelligent, incapable of emotion, reasoning, etc. are as prevalent as they are. I suspect these beliefs salve a lack of interest in ethical animal treatment, which would also be sad if true, because something shouldn't have to be capable of using tools or feeling sadness for us to want to treat it respectfully.
I noticed that the map is perhaps the one that moves more smoothly on my browser (Firefox Android), included the browser version of Google maps. Well done but how did you do it?

On the other side I couldn't use the history button to come back to HN after visiting the site: too many URLs pushed into history. As a very low priority activity, is there a way to keep the URL constant and generate one only if someone wants to share a screen?
True, but despite MySpace once being dominant, it’s peak scale was a tiny fraction of where Facebook is now.

MySpace was popular for some specific English speaking age groups mainly. Facebook is basically everywhere but China.

My parents who still refer to Google Maps as Mapquest are even on Facebook. It will take a pretty big screwup to flush out those types of users (not early adopters).
LanguageTool is based on a pretty powerful open-source tool, that's running in the cloud but can also be run on-prem. So, no need to reinvent the wheel.
Stop drinking soda.

Right now. Changing from Soda to sparkling water, is a very easy step.

The rest is Keto, but I wasn't strict with it. The average American is eating so much crap, even if you just commit to replacing all of your soda with sparkling water, and then replacing one meal per day with a low carb one. You'll probably lose a bit of weight.

Atlassian Statuspage used to set tracking cookies on their customer status pages. Of course me as a single customer asking to remove the tracking cookies had minimal if any effect. So I crawled a list of Atlassian Statuspage customers, contacted them asking to also open support tickets. And indeed it worked, the tracking cookies got removed :-)

Nah, that's optimizing practice. Eventually you roll into whatever because it's old hat. Would you tell BB King playing every day he was optimizing for nothing?

Haha. You can and will hit a bad streak, it's inevitable. There is value in doing the thing.

Pretty soon all that practice adds up. YMMV. But like the article said it's gotta be action.

What is doesn't say is this is a way to build small wins. It only takes a small chain to create momentum.
It's still TLC, so it should be pretty decent.
valgrind is available on mac. From the homepage: "It runs on the following platforms: (...) X86/Darwin and AMD64/Darwin (Mac OS X 10.12).". There's a notable omission of ARM64/Darwin in there, and I don't think it's an oversight.

What Mac is definitely lacking, though, is reverse debugging. Linux has rr, Windows has Time Travel Debugging. macOS still doesn't have an equivalent.
Well, McDonalds did that like ~70 years ago.

I was at Hackerlab at the beginning in 2012 when it was still on I at 17th. The community has always been lovely and Gina is very sweet and passionate. One of the biggest reasons why I’ve seen it struggle is the fact that so many people wanted it to be/to do different things for them. Coworking, private offices, event space, but also a makerspace with metalworking, woodworking, laser cutting, electronics, and more. A robust system of classes took years to get off the ground. Nobody wanted to do anything that wasn’t pleasant or interesting, but this is exactly what is needed to keep a space up and running.

Coworking area was boring, but this comes with the territory. Private offices make the bulk of their revenue but also consumed the bulk of their space. This was not a community, however. Everyone did their work and left - which is fine, but this was the front-of-house thing that everyone saw and was not super impressive until you saw the back. The Coworking area did serve as a meetup space which was nice at least.

In the makerspace area, at the beginning, a ton of people brought their tools into the space and made their own little dens and nobody was really allowed to touch those tools. Early members often did not pay membership but monopolized so much space with their clutter and tools that were useless to anyone else. This was a huge drain on the ability to get up and running but nobody wanted to have the hard conversations with these “foundational” members. This created a lot of social debt that had to be repaid/reorganized that, quite frankly, held them back a tremendous amount. A few “members” that seemed to be there all the time but we never saw working or making things, were actually homeless people just sleeping on the couches after everyone left.

Also, HackerLab is a B-corp, but not a tax-exempt nonprofit. I firmly believe getting tax-exempt status under 501(c)(3) is the only way to run a successful community space as we can align the organization’s
mission with what makes communities great to be apart of.

I was part of a small group that splintered off in 2016 to form our own smaller makerspace focused on desktop fab. We suffered a similar fate in that everyone on the board/admin side of things were makers. We didn’t want to do stuff like fundraise, go after members, equipment, or organize periodic events. We still did fine but made the decision to cease operations when the stay at home order started.

Now, I’m involved with Shop Class on Stockton Blvd at 14th ave. The guy who started it is my across-the-street neighbor. I found out what he was doing and helped him get connected with some people who were interested in this sort of thing. I’ve helped him organize as a nonprofit org and we just found our education coordinator, operations manager (myself), an (interim) events coordinator, and a community manager, but we’re still looking for a treasurer/ accountant. I’m helping Chad do everything right here from what I’ve learned over the years. We are current getting funding to build out the facility and possibly purchase the building.
I just replace "something happened in nyc" with "something happened in Wyoming or Alaska or North Dakota or South Dakota or Montana or Maine or Nebraska" when looking at Fox News headlines about how this city is apparently imploding.
I've never been robbed in the city (I have in the suburbs). I've never been burglarized in the city (I have in a small town). I've never had a gun pointed at me in the city (I have in a small town).

Most cities, especially nowadays, are quite safe. I think small towns are generally also safe, but from my personal experience, I've found the country to be less safe than cities because you're effectively on your own.

You're confusing users with customers. The customers are advertisers. The users overwhelmingly aren't.

You have to be in awe of the level of deception necessary to generate $115M in revenue on a site with 84% male users, and only 1% of female users at all active. This gives crypto a run for its money.

I guess it's easier to justify to oneself scamming people acting immorally. Or there's no recourse for people who get milked by the company. Who is going to contest charges linked to cheating?

That’s perhaps also the bit that Facebook investors/management ignores. You cannot have over a billion users and expect any significant growth. You also have to accept that any change you do might alianate a small percentage of your existing users.

You may very well be right. Facebook is adjusting their offering to keep a certain segment of users. That will eject another group, or at least reduce their engagement. That’s fine, if it ensures profitability for the next five years.

It’s just interesting to be part of a group of users that aren’t intersting to the social media platforms. Which in a way just confirms that the social media part of Metas business isn’t actually important to them, only the ad revenue that it might bring.
The only real extra protection that I can think of that they get is that they can revoke the access at any time (e.g. right after terminating contract). If someone malicious gets into the provider's AWS account it's highly likely that they can get the access to the running machines and extract the data. I guess if attacker is stupid and just tries to restore the encrypted backup it could alert the customer instead of just the provider assuming that's a non-standard operation.

If there was a very deep integration, essentially column-level, it could make a lot more sense, but that could give quite a big performance & cost hit as well as limit what you can do (essentially you wouldn't be able to do any matching on content level).
Here is Adam Mosseri, "Head of Instagram at Instagram", talking about why Instagram is leaning into Reels videos:

https://twitter.com/mosseri/status/1551890839584088065

He says users are using Reels more, even though they say they don't want Reels. Replies say content creators are reluctantly making Reels because the algorithm favors Reels over regular posts. Ironically, he posted this on Twitter (as a video) because it's a better medium for reaching Instagram users?
At the Sacramento makerspace we ran from 2016-2020, it was $1800 per year for a $2MM policy. Really not super cost-prohibitive, as it comes out to ~$135/mo.
> Facebook just doesn't respect its users or care about their needs.

Not only that, they're actually killing and destroying art forms. Many forms of art don't lend themselves to 15-second videos, and they're being actively downranked and not even shown to their own friends and followers anymore. Facebook is gatekeeping content between friends. You could have spent 500 hours painting a picture but Facebook will HIDE it from your friends just because it isn't a 15-second "Reel".

Zuck: "We want Reels to be the best place for creators to connect with their community and make a living"

Well, did you even bother asking the creators? A lot of them CANNOT make a living through short videos. They need still pictures, writing, interactive pages, and other ways to present their creations.

No, Zuck, you don't want it to the best place for creators. You actually don't give a flying f about creators. You just want to copy and compete with TikTok.

I do a lot of landscape photography and astrophotography, and my views have been slashed to 1/3 of what they were last year. Same quality content, it's Instagram HIDING stuff from my own followers and friends. I'm just glad I don't make a living from it, but feel really bad for those who do.
I think to make it make sense you have to define what “winning” means. It’s usually not the same thing for different sides of a war.

When we say the US lost the war in Vietnam, we obviously don’t mean the Viet Cong rolled tanks down Pennsylvania Avenue. The Mujahideen didn’t hold a giant missile parade in Red Square. For those groups, winning didn’t mean taking the enemy superpower’s capital, it just meant making the war costly enough for long enough that the enemy (who had far less skin in the game, it not being their country) gave up and went home.

For an occupying force, the victory condition is much more onerous—you must occupy a country (potentially far away) and pacify the local forces who have a lot of skin in the game and can make this whole ordeal very costly for you for a very long time even if they have no hope of being a threat to your homeland. And you must do this indefinitely. At some point it’s just not worth it.

Zelensky doesn’t need to hold a victory ball in the Grand Kremlin Palace, he just needs to make the war so costly, with no breakthrough in sight, that Russia can’t or won’t sustain it.
> Something like 60% of pedestrian road deaths are intoxicated pedestrians.

Do you have a source for this? I looked up your claim and found this study from the NHTSA[0] (pg 23), which does say that 60% of pedestrians hit have a BAC over 0.08; the catch is, that number is specifically for crashes which occur between 12:00AM and 3:00AM.

From pg 26 - "Of the pedestrians involved [in fatal crashes across all hours], 33 percent were intoxicated, with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 grams per deciliter (g/dl) or greater."

Since the NHSTA study I linked was conducted in 2001, it's possible that new information has been made available in recent years; if that is the case and that's where your data comes from, feel free to link.

Perhaps then safety depends on personality styles. I much prefer to be on my own, and don't mind arranging for my own defense. The thought of depending on police for that function terrifies me, particularly after Supreme Court rulings that effectively state they have no duty to protect you.

I think perhaps the city is safer for people who solve things by reporting problems to authority, whereas country is safer for those who rely on themselves. If you live in rural areas and depend on police for anything other than helping get the word out and possibly picking up someone after the fact, you are just fucked.
This is correct, there's first-class Overleaf support. https://languagetool.org/overleaf
If you give me access to use your KMS key to encrypt/decrypt an EBS volume, and grant me access to that EBS volume/mount it to an AWS EC2 instance I manage, I can read/write data on that EBS volume all day long.

The fact that you own the KMS key doesn't stop me from reading/writing that EBS volume. It doesn't offer any additional security guarantees, especially if I was already encrypting the EBS volumes with a KMS key.

If I am a SaaS offering, whether I use a KMS key I own or one you own doesn't change the fact that I still have access to all of the unencrypted data that is silently being encrypted by those KMS keys, I've got access to the layer above it.

Sure, if the contract ended they could revoke the KMS key and now the data on the EBS volumes is no longer readable by me, but any backups I have of that data is still within my purview.
> But in general, democracy isn’t doing too well, and a lot of it is due to a massive segment of bored, decadent, and petty populace that would rather watch the world burn if it owns their political enemies.

This is what the megacorps being in control looks like because they're the ones that led us here through ownership of media and thus any political candidate with a chance. Facebook, microsoft and google are only just getting started in the same space, and it is already many times worse than fox ever was.
Get her Bitwig! The 16-track version would be perfect to start with, and is on sale right now: https://www.bitwig.com/buy/

Bitwig is one of the only major audio workstations taking Linux seriously. They're basically building a supercharged version of Ableton Live, and it's got great multiplatform support. If latest PopOS! has PipeWire enabled, then all you need to install is your pipewire-jack package for the audio server, and your bitwig-studio package for Bitwig. Once you have Bitwig installed, you can boot that up and activate it with whichever version you get. It's a seriously powerful tool, and pairs nicely with touchscreen devices. Works great with MIDI enabled hardware, too!
If Aruria's V Collection ever goes on sale it's a killer combo with Bitwig. Easily one of the most straight forward ways to write music with 1000s of presets. Plus Bitwig has a discounted 8-track version so this doesn't need to be a huge investment.
i cant wait to have a daughter, ill show her hanna montana linux
I don't see these as problems as long as software is smart enough.

It merely requires the device to be always powered up (read: has a backup battery that can do periodic flash rewrites for 5 years). And it requires the controller to keep track of the current endurance of every page. A 'worn out' page can still hold data, it just holds either less data, or holds that data for fewer hours before needing to be rewritten.

Long gone are the days of "you can rewrite this data 100,000 times, and then leave it 10 years and it'll still be there". The new normal is "rewrite this data every 20 days to begin with, and after doing 1000 writes you'll need to rewrite the data every hour, or double the ECC bits and then you'll need to rewrite every day".
I’m sorry that things are the way they are :(

One time I tried telling someone that I wanted to interview them but also point out that they had a typo in their resume and they responded something like “I’m a bad ass mother fucker with experiences both military and civilian. Good luck finding a worker with your attitude.”

Another time I just got a multi paragraph email back arguing with my points.

Lots of people respond favorably to feedback, some don’t. Those who don’t can be draining and I just don’t care to deal with it anymore. The decisions are hard enough already
I beg to differ. Bitwig has a package on Ubuntu that works perfectly fine out of the box, with full Midi controller support (and multitrack, low-latency recording, as PipeWire rolls out across distros). The days of fiddling with JACK are over!

Facts. I went to InNOut with a friend because he swore by it and I ordered first. I got a tasteless burger and he got one that actually had food between the buns. AND his fries looked actually edible. I was confused, asked which options he chose, and he said something about secret menus which pisses me off. Why must I be prepared with inside knowledge for a store that claims to be fast and easy?

I measured the CO2 levels in one room using several different CO2 monitors - under similar conditions (steady-state with one person in the room, windows partially open) on different days; Aranet readings were the most stable and consistent, while matching the "expected ppm".

I also tested the monitors by exhaling directly on them, and confirming the change in readings.
If all the countries are borrowing from China and Gulf countries, then they don't really have to repay it. The combined military of NATO is more than enough to resist China and the Gulf's ability to recoup a default. Of course it would require an alternative manufacturing center or China would just repo all that shit.
