Well, can you imagine how much more upvoted it would have been with a good title?
Here's a particularly impressive result I got from the former (considering it's not especially optimized for "vector art" enlargement): https://twitter.com/andybak/status/1558737805546749953?s=20&...
Seems like a potential lost opportunity - if you really do have that many rare/obscure books there should be some organization that might want to at least have a first crack at them.
I'm in a similar position - time to do some research to see if there is someplace after I'm gone that might be interested in at least right of first refusal and a directive in my trust.
He definitely has a lot of dumb ideas, but he also has some pretty solid ideas that have changed the way I thought about the world. That being said, you could probably just read a short summary of Antifragile and Black Swan and get like 90% of the benefit
It boils down to "actions have consequences," some of which may be unfavorable. And those consequences have other possible consequences. It grows exponentially. So you need to figure out how to anticipate these consequences.
So they disagreed with your world view?
> Yeah this is the only thing you cannot DIY out of the whole process...

That depends on the state.

In Idaho, you absolutely can. I 100% DIY'd my ground mount install (documented in depth here: https://www.sevarg.net/tag/solar2020/), including all the wire runs and hookups.

A neighbor of mine who I've helped out and has done electrical work has done a more in depth project, including replacing a panel in his house with a different one (225A busbar, derated main breaker on it), 100% himself.

The limits out here are that you have to do it on your primary residence - I can do anything I want (with permits and inspections) where I live, but I can't legally do electrical work on a rental. Nor can I do electrical work on anyone else's house (though, of course, I can provide a set of hands to help them out with wire pulls and such).

Also, those were variations on a title about this particular topic. I bet if the model were used to score the likelihood that this blog post (with any reasonable title) were to hit front page, it would predict that to be likely.
Without getting into spoilers, I'll say that playing "Inscryption" really got me thinking about Docker's continued development could help consumers in the gaming industry.

I would love to see game being virtualized and isolated from the default userspace with passthrough for graphics and input to mitigate latency concerns. Abandonware could become a relic of the past! Being able to play what you buy on any device you have access to would be amazing.

I won't hold my breath, though. The industry pretty loudly rejected Nvidia's attempt to let us play games on their cloud without having to buy them all again. Todd needs the ability to sell us 15 versions of Skyrim to buy another house.
I cant believe they’re tracking chaplains to this level, that is not a profession where I would expect productivity to be a concern.

For the accounting executive clearing $200/hr, I could see it making sense for a company’s bottom line, but as she found out, 40 hrs of measurable work is not equal to 40 hrs of being present in an office. Companies will need to adjust their expectations of measurable work vs time in the office to address this - maybe only 32 hrs or less of measurable work is needed a week. Those with the special skill to stay productive and avoid going to the bathroom can maybe clear it all in 4 days.
Beside the technical reasons, tech companies are valued from their access to contact information, and Signal has had huge investments made. This despite the obvious fact that it is highly unlikely that Signal would benefit directly from that data in any way. But much Signal's design is taken from the companies that came before, which did.
Package.json is a mish mash of a lot of concerns. It has project metadata, that's also duplicated in your readme and github descriptions. It has scripts, that are also probably just calling into other shell scripts and such in your project. It has your dependencies. It has your development environment setup. It has random key value pairs you decided to place there years ago and forgot the exact reason for now but are too scared to remove them. It's a royal mess of a file to manage.

Having a file to manage locked dependency versions isn't bad. Having a file that has grown into a crufty monster with millions of uses can be bad.
If I do x, y and z may happen. Isn’t this thinking we learn in fifth grade?
>Quality is producing things as per specifications and allowable tolerances.

Exactly. Quality Control is verification of the fact that things were produced to spec with correct materials to allowable tolerances.

I think quality is the part where many offshore manufacturers are willing to cut corners and quality control is sporadic or absent. Thanks for this.
What does your email setup look like stack wise btw? Always curious to hear from people who are hosting their own email server.
Can we just take a moment and applaud the Android team for evolving the Android UI to a point where it actually looks fresher and more modern than iOS? Android looked like a dumpsterfire and a poor-man's iOS for 10 years but now... who would've thought Google would outmuscle Apple in the design arena? It was unthinkable a couple of years ago. Apple got complacent and Google pounced.
I read "old compiler" and thought you meant something like GCC 4.8.5, not something released in 2020!
Is this in reference to how chess was played in India (Chaturanga)? I've been reading a book on Sultan Khan [0], and it talks about the many different ways Chess was played.

Interestingly enough, the only common rule amongst all the different versions of Chess (since it changed depending on where you lived) was that the pawn always went one space.

I don’t have any numbers, but some job postings will say full time, part time, or will have a minimum number of hours they offer. Some will also give a percentage range of hours they offer of part time to full time.

If the posting doesn’t say, I just brought it up during the initial call so we were on the same page before continuing the interview process. Most German companies didn’t have a problem with it, but I found that UK and US companies did.

Keep in mind working hours are fixed in your contract and it’s not unspecified like in the US.
This is one of many, many reasons I encourage people who have the land to do so, to do ground mounts. Zero chance of roof leaks that way, and the cost, even with the ground mounts, can actually end up being lower if you don't have a lot of shade. NEC 2017 requires per-panel electronics for shutdown on the roof, and there's no such requirement for ground mounts - so I just have 12 panel series strings going to a string inverter. There's no shade microinverters would help with (my two arrays shade each other a bit in the morning and evening).
You can take a look at the Wikipedia site for Defense Distributed, which filed suit against the state department for blocking the distribution of CAD files under export control rules. It hasn't been smooth sailing, but many of the legal cases seem to be breaking in the direction of DD. Of course that case is more complicated given that there is both a 1A and a 2A argument.

This suggests another way forward: Re-encode the existing opcodes with new, more regular byte sequences. E.g. 32 bits / instruction, with some escape for e.g. 64bit constants. You'll have to redo the backend of the assembler, but most of the compiler and optimization wisdom can be reused as-is. Of course, this breaks backward compatibility completely so the high performance mode can only be unlocked for recompiles.
It doesn't help you but perhaps it will help others - I moved recently and had a bunch of "junk" books similar to your grandfathers. By pure happenstance I found out that recyclers love books because they get the highest prices for clean paper in books. They happily showed up - for free - and helped cart out several bookcases of old, obsolete tech books. It was quite a godsend.
The ROI can change a lot depending on your particular circumstances, though. If you live in a not-so-sunny place with minimal electricity use, a 10-15 year ROI isn't unreasonable. But if you live in a sunny place and pay a lot for HVAC or an electric car, the payback can be much shorter (sometimes 5 to 7 years, especially if you self-install). Time-of-use billing can also dramatically change the numbers, depending on your state/electric utility and household usage habits -- sometimes even to the point where you can use a battery to play electricity arbitrage, buying/generating low and selling back high (if your area allows such a scheme).

Electricity prices are expected to keep going up too. But there is also uncertainty in how utilities will renegotiate (or else grandfather in) existing solar ratepayers. California's solar pricing schemes have changed a lot just in the last decade as they went from minimal solar to solar oversaturation (the grid couldn't keep pace with the # of installs).

At the end of the day, for some homeowners, solar is a no-brainer. For others, it doesn't make sense. It totally depends... it isn't an automatic win, but also not something that should be categorically written off. It's worth investigating, especially for new constructions that are heavily electrified (i.e. use electricity for heating/cooling/cooking instead of gas or other fuels).

But agreed that grid-scale makes more sense, combined with other power technologies.

One minor nitpick: It's unlikely the PV modules (solar panels) themselves will fail in 20 years; you'll more likely have to replace your inverter before the cells themselves break. Sometimes those inverters are string inverters in your house (no roof work needed), other times they are microinverters/power optimizers attached to the modules themselves, which would make it more complicated to replace.
My state doesn't license electricians at all and leaves it up to local governments to decide whether they want to require any sort of local license to be an electrician.

I've never done electrical work myself but I've hired electricians and as far as I can tell there is no licensing requirement in my local jurisdiction nor any sort of local license to be an electrician.
Should the flow be described as:

Internet -> Modem -> router -> managed switch - access point ?

Anyway, thanks for sharing the setup. I love how everybody here has a different takeaway from this.
For me, it was nanoPi. I just ordered R4SE for my tinkering with OpenWrt.

I have a symmetric fiber gig connection that is quite stable but I’m thinking about getting a secondary connection from a different provider.
My “dream” is to have HA (active/passive) routers that can fall back on the backup (slower) line and back when there’s need. The rest of my HW is small and spread out throughout a house than not a single failure will severely affect my home.
With n=1, not sure if conclusive.
A lot of high level emulation works this way as well. And, similarly, FPGA cores often aren't "simulating game hardware" either.
Maybe in next versions they should choose 256 bits (or 160, like bitcoin) which would be the hash of a public key, an any vendor that provides a valid signature, can claim that 160 bit vendor ID. No more need for a central authority

I'm probably overengineering it, just pointing out it is technically possible
Apple's $30M settlement over employee bag checks gets court approval
Honestly- subjectively. Does the software crash often, do I see weird behaviour as a user, what's the number of users, bug report rates. I think those systems do compare in complexity to at least pieces of todays software. A lot of this older code is still powering things today/morphed into newer/larger systems.

I've worked in more recent times on software that was used by millions of people, was extremely reliable, and didn't have a lot of unit tests. We did have other forms of automated testing though.
Probably an error-shift-encoded one-time pad scheme. The post is the publicly distributed ciphertext.
You can reduce chances of this by acting fast. Follow these steps:

1. Get authorization code for transfer from GoDaddy

2. Put that in the host you want to transfer to (This will start your race against time). I suggest you use cloudflare since the transfer is fast.

3. Go to GoDaddy and approve transfer(GoDaddy hides this option to delay the process intentionally, follow the video to find this option).

4. Your details will become private again if your new host support whois privacy.

Here is a video(starts at 8:18) to do all 3 steps back to back: https://youtu.be/81LtL2ZvD38?t=498
Yup. That's the one. If it works for you, great, but it crashes on symbol issues for many people.
Needs assembly lines. None of this custom-every-time stuff.
I live in a house with a fixed awning at the front, as it was formerly a shop.

I bought a dozen flexible panels at around $1 / watt. These are very lightweight and I was able to install them on top of the awning without going on to the roof.

Not a high powered system, nor particularly efficient in terms of space. But low material cost and self-installed.

I wonder, when sampling to shrink the set of bad titles, it samples uniformly. But wouldn't it be better to take the n worst titles (with the least upvotes)? After all, titles near the good/bad threshold are a bit arbitrary and should be hard for the model to get right, would increasing the contrast make it perform better? Or does that limit the model's exposure too much that it ends up harming more than it helps?

> You didn't answer the question. You can't claim that there are simpler solutions then not actually provide a simpler solution.

And what was would be a reasonable response to you? Pasting a novel filesystem implementation as proof that the existing ones are overcomplicated? Opinions do not have a burden of evidence.

There is a handful of CoW filesystems out there, showing that it is certainly not an insurmountable issue to write one. Rather, the problem is stopping people from doing more at this point, keeping the design simple instead.

That we don't have something better yet is likely a result of writing filesystems in general being rather laborous to do right regardless of CoW, and being incredibly unrewarding - few care about filesystems unless it's broken.
What identity token would you prefer?

Would it be bound to the mobile device in any way?

Would it require that a canonical list of registered identities be stored server-side?

How would you impose a cost on spam accounts without burdening users?

Just a few considerations.

Can't they, like, add new APIs, but not touch the damn UI without a clearly defined rationale? By "clearly defined" I mean substantiated by something besides calls to emotions.

I do intend to get my membership again. With current goings on I'm so busy that I just buy used books to read at my own pace, then sell back. Mind you that could remain the same indefinitely. You also need updated proof of residence to get your card.
> data-flow language

Forgive me if misunderstand, but could you not use an array oriented language such as APL, J or K? Whilst they probably don't quite mesh with explicitly controlling the data flow, but don't they and other declarative languages allow the computer to optimise the best path to maximize computational throughput?
No, I think GP is referring to their big data breach last year[0]. From TFA linked in that discussion:

> the attacker(s) had access to privileged credentials that were previously stored in the LastPass account of a Ubiquiti IT employee, and gained root administrator access to all Ubiquiti AWS accounts, including all S3 data buckets, all application logs, all databases, all user database credentials, and secrets required to forge single sign-on (SSO) cookies.

It has shaken a lot of people's confidence in Ubiquiti's internal security practices.

Can we watch the feedback course Wade teaches? This is an important topic that I’ve found varies greatly from manager to manager and would appreciate a framework.
Yes. Zeynep isn't saying "second order effects don't exist". She's saying "don't overthink it".

Consider the public health nightmare we've been stuck in for the last three+ years. Instead of giving direct and useful guidance, people worry about how people will react to guidance and make second order arguments against the basic guidance that would actually help.
It certainly makes me wonder: it Twilio more competent because they noticed a phishing success? I assume there are plenty of people at every company who could fall for social engineering scams, so I think it's safe to say most companies aren't totally safe -- they just haven't noticed a major breach.
Much like one could say it internets Windows userland and system calls with Linux and its userland.
New Elon Musk essay: Tesla CEO's thoughts on technology and humanity
Most people will choose weak passwords given the option. And so I think it's the responsibility of the developer to enforce strong requirements (edit: when dealing with data encryption susceptible to brute-force attacks): entropy estimations, 128(+)-bit static keys, etc. If any user has chosen a weak passphrase, and still believes it to be secure, the developer has likely failed.
Zapier. Brilliant when it started and good for small integrations today. I say that as a heavy user. Not brilliant and torturous with complex integrations due to the linear zap creation UI in my view. Doesn't handle failed connections well in my opinion. Integromat's object UI is much easier to work with (but also far from perfect).
I signed up for a magazine subscription, and was added to a ton of spam email offers. So maybe not retailers but there are plenty of businesses that will sell your email. Charities are another good example, they make a lot of their money selling their donor lists.
I have the same setup since forever but I do occasionally find one of the custom emails being used as SPAM (when this happens, I either delete it or replace with a new one). So it's very clear to me that those companies in specific either sold or had it's data stolen somehow.

Similar.

Used to run flagship phones, replaced them on the yearly, ran various Android builds on current phone and/or older phones....

At some point I simply stopped caring, started to get the pixel-A phones, and lived happily ever after. I think my Nexus 6p was the last flagship phone I owned, and I probably swapped the battery in that like ~5 times before I got the boot-loop of death. These days I won't be bothered to replace a battery, unless there is a compelling reason. Just get another phone, and move on.
When you get to version 13 of an OS, it's natural that the changes are more minor, but the permissions/privacy changes (though wonky, and harder to explain to the average user) are good and important.
Having the ability to identify by other strings than "phone number" wouldn't take away any functionality, just add it. It would be possible to communicate with devices that have email but not phone numbers (children without SIM cards, for example).

But this is all moot because phone numbers aren't just opaque binary strings. They are more useful than other forms of identification.

The first place that came to mid is Northwest Arkansas, especially Bentonville. It still has a small town feel but has much nicer amenities than a town of its size normally does because of all the money brought in by Walmart being headquartered there. The surrounding towns, Fayetteville especially, are also nice. This place is especially awesome if you are into doing things outdoors, especially mountain biking.

It’s a reimplementation of the APIs rather than an emulation. Same as how Linux reimplemented UNIX APIs, but it’s not a UNIX emulator.
Yes, Cloudflare pointed out the similarity and they suppose it's a single attacker with multiple targets.

If you have access (I don't in my current role and I don't care enough to spend money to do this on my own account) you can ask a passive DNS system about names like cloudflare-okta.com that were used in the Cloudflare attack, identify patterns (same registrar, same hosting, that sort of thing) and also the IP addresses Cloudflare listed.

You should probably assume that anywhere which doesn't actually have FIDO or similar and was actively targeted is screwed, because it only takes one lapse to let the bad guys in.
Yeah. Long mode is a bit of a line in the sand, leaving many features behind that were kept for compatibility (segmentation, vm86...). It came at a time where, fortunately, the mainstream OSes had enough abstraction so that software did not have to be written for what effectively was the bare metal anymore, with DOS almost being more of a "software bootloader with filesystem services".
Consumer protection encompasses reliability and change management as well as privacy. Tossing software out into the world with no idea if it’s working and no ability to mitigate bugs could, in a more regulated climate, come to be seen as a kind of software engineering malpractice or negligence. Telemetry and feature flagging are an essential part of my employer’s compliance story with at least one of its EU regulators.
One way to achieve similar results on Linux might be for the Linux kernel team to start taking control of core libraries like x11 and wayland, and to extend the same "don't break userspace" philosophy to them also. That isn't going to happen, but I can dream!
