I use both. I've asked myself why I don't just streamline and standardize simply on Linux as overall it has more traction, but every time I have the opportunity to complete the switch I refuse to give up BSD. I think it boils down to control.

Thinking back I have had essentially the same experience/environment on BSD for years. Upgrading from one version to the next just works and is fairly painless, even across major releases (trying to think of the last time I've had issues). I keep my home directory on a separate physical disk, so upgrading the OS drive or moving to new hardware is a matter of installing the latest BSD and plugging my home drive back in and mapping it. After upgrading I can use pkg to reinstall the apps I need and the shortcuts all link back, and I'm done. Probably forgot a few steps in there but it doesn't take long. For example I upgraded from 11.x to 13.0 just a few months ago with a hard drive swap and it took me maybe 3 hours(?), including installing the physical drive.

I don't play a lot of games on it, other than complete source ports, or simple games that run on vanilla wine. Linux is for gaming and experimenting. On Linux I am far more free with what I install, and my experience has changed often over the years with different distros. Some of that was by my choice, but even at the most basic level I've found that distros tend to have a lot of flux between versions.

So, overall no real surprises with FreeBSD. Upgrade and keep chugging.

Everything in this article is true. As you can see by the comments in this thread, saying "I love TypeScript" is not enough to please the TypeScript cult. Nothing but complete devotion is required. You can say "it has its flaws" but don't mention them, just say that phrase to pretend you aren't biased.

The comments in this thread say that the way you are writing TypeScript is wrong. What they are advocating for is essentially turning TypeScript into Java in terms of its style. This is what good TypeScript codebases end up looking like. They don't look like JavaScript. You could take all of the type information out and they still wouldn't look like JavaScript.

I think that when people find that their ex-JavaScript, now TypeScript codebases have become Java codebases, many of them will realise they don't really like TypeScript anymore. If they are the people that said "You aren't professional if you don't use TypeScript", etc, then they are not welcome back into the JavaScript cult. If they are not one of those people, they must profess their hatred of TypeScript, and then we will let them back in.

Anyway, no matter what, you still have to work with the native APIs and so on, which just don't work with TypeScript. Take Web Components for example. You create a web component by defining a class, but you never instantiate the class yourself. You use document.createElement('my-component'). Good luck typing that. Good luck typing proxies.

I hate TypeScript.

> that lane has been placed by an idiot. It's on the wrong side of the car.

No, it's on the right (i.e. correct) side of the car - drivers are trained to look into the side mirror before opening the door, passengers not (and even if they were, they can't use the mirror on their side).
With how complex messaging became, I'm not even sure this is the best method for everyone. Sure, having basic chat functionality and interoperability is great and should be even mandatory. But there are a lot of platform-specific feats that break or are impossible this way. Until the utopia that everyone unites in a common protocol, webapps and these kind of switching apps are a great alternative, not just a stopgap.
There's a huge variation. Some rides, I've had two or three incidents that the police have actioned after I submitted the cam footage, and other times, I can go a couple of months without a bad incident.
They're only narrow when they drive in the dooring zone and minimum distance isn't kept during overtaking (Germany: 1.5m in town, else 2m)
I don't even have the Google Services installed on my phone because I consider them a security and privacy risk.

For now I can use my computer, because they fortunately also have a website, but I could see in the near-future that you have to have this app installed.
That's never actually the case in an org chart, though. A CISO may require that a DR plan exists, but they're not the ones in charge of implementing it.

Also, if they can handle a primary datacenter outage, they have a working DR plan. If I was working on an infrastructure team and was told I needed to handle multiple, simultaneous datacenter outages, I'd start looking for another job.
No they don't. Do you drive? Cause if so - you're a threat to other people...

When a pedestrian crosses a street - cars and bikes have to stop for example. When a bike and a car meet on an intersection of equal roads with no lights or signs - whoever is on the left has to yield, no matter what their speed is. When signs or lights show who has to yield - it also doesn't matter if you drive a car/bike or walk.

I can't think of a single instance where the law says you should yield just because you're slower.

And if law doesn't say who should yield - it's customary to let the slower/more vulnerable to go first.
In Germany I see this as basically an infrastructure problem. Most of the bike lanes are just a painted red strip on the sidewalk. This is dangerous because it puts cyclists so close to pedestrians--who often move unpredictably into the bike lane--and it's easy as a pedestrian to accidentally wander into the bike lane. Especially at night when the red is hard to see (they should have chosen a brighter color like neon green) or near bus stops when pedestrians getting off the bus are almost forced to immediately cross the bike lane.

This is not to mention on some streets the bike lane just randomly ends and you find yourself on a sidewalk with no separate lane and you have to choose whether to stay on the sidewalk and risk hitting a pedestrian, or dangerously swerve into the street and risk getting hit by a car.

If they just built proper separated bike lanes protected from car traffic, and clearly separated from pedestrians this simply wouldn't be an issue at all. Copenhagen has it right where the bike lanes are painted bright blue and are on a physically raised level from both the street and sidewalk, in addition to prioritizing bikes and pedestrians at many intersections without stoplights. It's a joy to cycle around Copenhagen because of this.
You don't need any traversal services for that though. You can set up port forwarding as needed on you router if something requires special access.

Problems start with NATs that you can't control.
NF is consistent – proof partly in LEAN
I've had an entire Mazda 2 hidden from view in a roundabout, by the A-pillar and associated airbag of a VE commodore. Pedestrians and bicycles required much more effort to see in that car than any other I've ever driven.
That's an upgrade
> A small child would be impossible to see even some meters away.

A US local News did a segment on that recently, they lined up sitting children in front of a truck, I think only the 7th or 8th child in the row was visible and even then barely. You basically can’t see anything shorter than the hood for 10 feet in front of you, and that’s assuming you look at the road from over the driving wheel not between the dash and wheel arch.

Edit: turns out “recently” is optimistic (or more likely this is a recurring segment), found this from 3 years back: https://youtu.be/NDH3FDfVQl0

Tho it’s not the segment I was thinking of.
Well cyclist running red lights is extremely common here in Zürich Switzerland especially during morning rush hour.

I have seen some crazy altercations between not cars and cyclist but public transport like trams and cyclist.

Once a cyclist managed to pull up to the front of a double bendy trollybus[1] I was in just to cut across the front of the bus forcing the driver to hard break. In another incident recently which ended up in the paper, a bus had to break so hard because of a cyclist that several people got injured.

The purpose of a patent is to encourage global innovation by granting exclusive rights for commercialising technology for a limited time in response to sharing how it works.

Roughly, if you invent PageRank and keep it internal to your search company, you can exploit that idea but if someone else comes up with it they can exploit it too. If you invent PageRank and patent it, the whole world knows how it works but can’t use it for 20 years without paying you.

Generally in case of a violation you’d want to sue for damages, whether that be licensing costs not paid, or missed revenue on your own side.

This probably then ends up in a bit of a grey area. Shazam would be within their rights to exert the patent, but the damages are likely so minimal to be outweighed by the cost of litigating the case, which means that the C&D is a little too chilling for my liking. Basically, any penalty would be lawyers fees - author hasn’t tried to commercialise it, it doesn’t reduce Shazam’s revenue at all. Are there any damages at all?

And then, few would argue (I think) that simply implementing a patent for educational purposes constitutes infringement. My uni course contained an implementation of PageRank. Is publishing the course notes then infringement? Arguable it’s anti-goal to discourage actually spending time learning about the innovation beyond just reading the patent doc - otherwise the motivations of the system break down. So, just how different is this? Presumably on a conceptual basis you want your universities to be able to teach about things invented in the last 20 years without licensing patents?
Effective cycling is only possible with effective infrastructure. If you keep sharing the same road, accidents will happen. Big cars are not a problem. The solution is build dedicated infra for cyclers. There is no other way.
> “And the answer is always: Amazon.” It turns out that handling e-commerce packages for decent pay while listening to podcasts beats arriving at 5am to ask passengers whether they have packed any liquids in their carry-on.

That's absurd, I'm in Facebook and Instagram mostly to check what's happening to my friends, not some random dude thousands km away.

Do they really think that changing the algorithm in this way is going to help them in the long term?
A lot of people, those around me included, seem to not grasp that for safe overtake of a bicycle you still require a second lane (at least partially) besides your own.

But in traffic and the laws lane usage is binary. There is no such thing as half lanes, you cannot use the second lane "a little". You either need it, or you don't.

So overtaking a bicycle, a motorbike, a pedestrian on the road or a tractor, etc. it is all the same.

What I'm trying to say is, where I live people forget that all the time, and then they think they can "squeeze by", endangering cyclists, motorcyclists and most of all the opposing traffic. I see this multiple times a week in the summer.
Bicycles are blamed for losing virginity in girls in Arab countries, no kidding!
That is a genetic algorithm at work.

With "genetic programming" I was referring to applying genetic algorithms to code. So that the result of the evolution is a program that performs well doing a task like driving a car.

Cycling is cheap, often faster than driving (in my city), healthy, less noisy, creates vastly less pollution, less dangerous to pedastrians...

And I'd guess that about 95% of drivers that I come across are respectful of the danger they present - overtaking with enough space, and not at too high a speed (my city doesn't have great bike lanes). Unfortunately, a typical journey involves passing more than 20 cars, which means experiencing at least 1 very close pass, or some kind of dangerous driving.

And the frustrating thing is that the drivers who impatiently pass dangerously are putting people at risk for the sake of ~10-30 seconds (or less). Often I'll catch up with them at the queue for the traffic lights.. Average traffic speeds for cars are around 8-12mph, including stopping for lights, congestion, etc, [1] which is fairly easy to surpass on a bike..

It might be more ... useful to think of models, understanding, and/or knowledge (largely interchangeable terms) as having use value rather than truth value.

That is, good models are useful, in some way.

Usefulness, like value, is itself relative and depends on intent, goals, and starting positions.

That said, there are models with greater or usefulness over a wide range of circumstances. Holding to a model which is demonstrably inferior in this regard might well be considered "wrong", in this sense.

> Around election time one has to worry whether their family member who has gone out for an errand will return in one piece.

Oh really. What a joke
I think it's a combination of evangelism and excitement but also of a fallacy, thinking that a Rust application ought to be faster and more efficient with system resources, so people "helpfully" inform of this.

As any developer knows, a low level programming language may help you get there, but ultimately this is mostly dependent on code quality. Rust applications can be absolutely riddled with bugs and use O(n^2) algorithms where they don't need to, or have awesome code but rely on third party libraries that don't. There's just so much surrounding the core aspects of the language that we just can't judge applications based on their programming language.

Rust does protect against buffer overflows and pointer misuse etc but so does many other languages nowadays, for example by directing the developer away from (or not even supporting) the use of low level unchecked pointers in the first place.

Not sure what OP is referring to exactly either, but there has been a bit of talk about euthanasia in the press following the case of a man who killed his wife who was dying of cancer (and then attempted unsuccessfully to kill himself): https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jul/22/law-euthanas...

My impression is the attitude towards euthanasia is becoming more favourable. I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes an Labour election promise over the next decade (the Lib Dems already support it I believe).
Ask HN: Are adblocker using CSP mechanics in the browser?
We are implementing CSP-Header on our website, we have setup a report endpoint to get the feedback form browsers. We do see reports on domains that are allowed, but mainly for Google Analytics and such. We are suspecting that some adblocker are using the CSP mechanics in the browser to block the tracking, but as we do have a report endpoint configured, the browser will send us a "false alert".

Does anybody know more about that than I do?
There are now some protected bike lanes in which parked cars provide part of the protection (!), but you need a lot of space in order to construct one without having the passenger-side door zone overlapping the protected lane.

It's pretty nice as a cyclist, in the minority of cases where there was enough space to do it this way. I suspect it may have required eliminating an entire traffic lane in some places!
Rather than trying to divide people into categories based on how they happen to be travelling (many cyclists are also drivers and pedestrians at times), I find it better to appreciate that a percentage of the population act like assholes (5%?). The thing is that assholes in motor vehicles are likely to injure/kill someone, whereas assholes on bikes are as likely to injure themselves as others and assholes on foot are very unlikely to injure others (excepting the ones that step out into a road/cycle path without looking). So, what we need to do is attempt to get as many assholes out of their cars and onto bikes (or foot) for as many journeys as possible. I welcome seeing an asshole on a bike as it means they're not currently an asshole in 2 tonnes of speeding death machine.
It's still the bicycle. In my city in just the last year, I've seen bicycling accused of causing gentrification (along with Little Free Libraries), traffic, juvenile delinquency, gun violence, falling tax revenues, poor road maintenance, property tax increases, and undoubtedly some more that I've forgotten.

AWS Is Different. What Are AWS Accounts, IAM Users and Root User?
To get nitpicky... (usual disclaimer, IANAL but I worked in health IT including heavy involvement in HIPAA topics earlier in my career) I don't think there's a requirement under HIPAA or HITECH to use encryption.

The relevant parts of HIPAA are the duty to not disclose PHI to unauthorized recipients and breach notification requirements if you do incorrectly disclose PHI (the HIPAA breach notification rule).

The magic of encryption is that HIPAA provides safe harbor if the data stolen/lost/intercepted was encrypted to certain standards. So if you lose an encrypted hard drive full of PHI, or someone breaks into your servers and steals encrypted data but not the decryption capability, then it's not considered a breach under HIPAA and you do not need to notify anyone.

Tons of PHI isn't stored encrypted at rest. Physical theft of the hard drive from the practice's back-end EHR database server hasn't generally been high priority on the HIPAA breach potential risk assessment list. But nearly all data in transit, on employee laptops, etc. will be encrypted, because that's where you want the safety net of the safe harbor provision.
I meant F-150 style cars. They're next level - much taller and wider than what we have here. Small 4x4s like Toyota RAV4 are closer to compacts, and you still have a fair chance to roll over if you hit them in the front.

I guess we do have larger 4x4s like Land Cruiser, forgot about them. They're somewhere in between? Wouldn't want to hit one, but it's not a guaranteed "splat".

Honk away, then. Whenever I make left turns on intersections, I pre-emptively check behind me if there's any traffic coming behind me, use hand signals to signal my intent to move left and then confidently take the lane I need, so long as there isn't any fast moving traffic coming my way. I would stop if it's impossible to cross lanes without impeding traffic.
I have been contemplating buying a bullit cargo bike for years but on all but one place I lived I would have had the storage required to store it inside. Can't see leaving a 5 to 8K€ bike in the streets.
