This one is probably very different than many people experienced, but I credit these things for being in the top 1% of earnings for my American co-hort (starting race, gender, educational attainment and economic class.)

My parents were theologians and both grew up as missionaries kids in incredibly dangerous, remote, environments, the best thing they did was teach us to think critically and parse communication (especially persuasive communication) and complex ideas. They used the tools of hermeneutics, theology and philosophy to do this, they also exposed us to living philosophers and their writings and the fields many journals.

They became heavily involved in education, literacy and higher learning and their plans to go overseas for mission work were dropped.

Every week on the way home from from the different churches we went to they would ask us what the pastors had preached incorrectly, what assertions they had made that were not defensible with the text they had used. There was very occasionally nothing said incorrect but there was usually A LOT of indefensible and even contradictory teaching. Much of it was teaching dominant local cultural positions unsupported by or antithetical to the text.

My siblings went into successful careers in scientific research, law, tech and leadership roles.

Literacy, critical thinking and the ability to parse complex ideas are invaluable. Having an "objective" text to argue to made things much more approachable as children.

I would love to figure out how to do that with my own kids if I ever have them, I won't be taking them to church so I'm not sure how to replicate the same environment.

Edit:
The other thing they did was they moved us to a very wealthy area when I was about 13, and even though health catastrophe destroyed my families fortunes and health (before taking the lives of both my parents while I was barely 20,) our financial proximity to wealth and our willingness to exploit ourselves did give us access to capital opportunities we wouldn't have had in a less affluent area.

Im just posting my observations having managed on prem and data centres over the last couple of decades.

> Containers are pretty great, however I wouldn't say that they're always exclusive to virtualization

I literally said it’s not a like for like replacement. Plenty of SaaS offerings run virtualisation for security with containers on top. But in those instances the VMs aren’t used for distributed computing; they’re used as a security layer. It’s the containers that perform the distributed aspects.
Just thinking of other non profits I've glanced at this does feel a little lopsided. $67m salary plus $12m professional expenses all to get $10m out the door on actual operations?

What am I missing?
Yeah, but effective 2Mbps was a pretty decent connection speed in 2007, while theoretical maximum of 384Kbps was already underwhelming. Source: I used 2G data around that time extensively :)
After reading their other comments I think they’re more of the mindset of “regulations mean higher cost and I don’t want to pay more to meet standards I don’t immediately care about“

> 98% of our readers don't give

I’m actually kinda surprised that 2% of readers do give. That’s more than 5x the rate at which people click on banner ads, and we’re talking not just about people clicking but about them actually parting with real money.
terrifying what cancel culture can do nowadays
This is the third time CF banned a site and it won’t be the last. It gets easier to justify every time and Cloudflare just motivated every deplatforming mob on Twitter. They showed pressure tactics work, just help create an ‘extraordinary’ situation.

This is the kind of stuff spies are experts at. It can be learned by motivated online communities to target their enemies.
it has just moved and they are already complaining about intermittent access issues. and now former fbi director is saying that their desperate move to russian servers elevates their risk of US marking them as domestic terrorists. so the campaign does appear to be having some impact, and is not over.
Hydrogen is significantly lighter though.

If the oil companies chose to expand out their infra on the highway system with hydrogen, it may make more sense with long haul, big truck routes.

Battery power scales more proportionally to weight than hydrogen.
You can still buy the X10 Powerhouse thermostat setback controller [1].

"Mounts on the wall under your thermostat and plugs into an appliance or wall receptacle module. Selector switch (low, medium, and high) 'fools' your thermostat into 'thinking' the room is 5, 10, or 15 degrees F warmer than it really is."

The most recent C standards also explicitly define integer math as 2’s complement. Admittedly, much later than D.
He? Is it a one-man-band? If so, that's a scary single point of failure for something as critical as your email.
How much extra time does it take to dump out some powder? I don't actually measure precisely and just eyeball it. The advantage is I can dump some extra in the bay to act as pre-wash. The cost is 4-10x more for the self-dissolving packs.
> there's a good chance they may have saved Keffals' life.

Last I looked kiwifarms was still available on the url listed on their wiki page (not to mention posts viewable via the internet archive). Does this mean Keffals is going to die? I'll bet £100 of mine to $1 of yours she isn't killed by anyone this with a kiwifarm association in the next year.

Also, you have a very poor understanding of the frequency of internet shitposting if you're taking a random bomb threat on the internet seriously, those things happen thousands of times a day qnd amount to nothing 99.9999% of the time.
A globally optimal understanding would involve far more than biochemistry and medical journals - population analysis, behavioral economics, regular economics, risk analysis, and a crystal ball would all be needed to avoid "doing a lot of things suboptimally". The fact that you haven't even mentioned those fields of study makes it clear you're not familiar with even the scope of the problem, let alone how to solve it.

Hell, we could improve patient outcomes enormously by paying for everyone to receive basic dental care, today.
Certs for MX servers are supposed to have the MX as subject or SAN, not your email domain. It's important when the sender enforces encryption with a valid cert (e.g. MTA-STS, or config in the mail server, or many hosted solutions like Google Workspace also support enforcing this for selected or all domains).

Example:

example.com. MX aspmx.l.google.com.

Cert should have aspmx.l.google.com as subject or SAN.
You can also do try_from()? if you impl From<TryIntError> on your local error type.
Of the articles I’ve read about Peter, this is I think the best description of his achievements wrt Let’s Encrypt. An illuminating read about an inspired life.

RIP Peter.
Seriously, people are still claiming Climategate demonstrated anything significant other than "scientists are human" and "deniers will go to extreme lengths to hang on their world view" after 10 frigging years? I can just envisage you crying out "but climategate!" as your house is finally claimed by the rising seas and you desperately try to scavenge the last remaining cans and packages of food that are no longer economical to produce due to disrupted rainfall patterns and annual heatwaves, all while doing your best to help burn up the fossil fuels that could never have possibly been the reason for any of this happening because only nutjob communists could possibly make up such extraordinary lies.
It's certainly good advice. However, Nature is there to publish new science, not to provide generic advice.

While I agree with your premise, how the hell do we know the parent is a trained physician? This is an anonymous forum. Without a long, elaborate history on HN or public credentials, to be of meaningful value in terms of trust (in the context we're discussing) the reply needs to bring a lot more to the conversation than a one line statement and claim of being a doctor. Maybe they are a doctor, great: they can add a lot more to the counter reply if so, information that they are in theory particularly equipped to discuss.
Too close to Yuck-ma-script.
I've now got quite a few phones on my desk (6 right now) plus all the other historical ones. It's surprising to see the differences, quirks, and little gems. My main phone has now become an 13 Pro Max, it's solid, reliable and smooth (but my main reason was the camera/video quality). While features might be hidden via gestures I don't think I've ever seen a problem or bug with anything - certainly nothing that is repeated or sticks out in my mind.

But that said the functionality of Android is much wider in scope, which is a blessing and a curse.

For my startup one of the core features is uploading photos/videos, and lots of them.. getting to know how each platform deals with background processes has been very eye opening. Apple : there's a couple of ways, it's on our terms, maybe, if we feel up to the task - but you know what you're getting. Android : here's the kazillion different changing API's on how to do it... you'll get there with better performance of what you want (maybe) but good luck navigating the landscape !

I suspect Androids eco system problems is just keeping up with ever changing APIs, or learning what worked fine on your Sony xperia 1 ii, fails miserably on your first customers Samsung S20.... then realising you're doing it wrong on the apis, then re-writing it, then the api's change....

So the chance of app bugs is far, far higher in Android.
Using ammonia as fuel doesn't "just" release n2, it also release a lot of nitrogen oxides, which are significantly more powerful greenhouse gases than CO2, contribute to the formation of smog and acid rain, and destroy tropospheric ozone.
Is email itself broken? What could replace it, that isn't a "platform" like WhatsApp?
Maybe it's a joke, but a problem I see in every "open source self hosted alternative" is that people tend to underestimate how much work is to self-host everything.

It's either paid hosting like AWS, some intermediate docker-compose solution or your own personal server machine. In every case someone has to do the gritty work. It's either a paid service, a volunteering open-source contributor, or you.
Wrote my smtp server 5 years ago. Still running.

BTW, did you know the smtp protocol works without DNS?

You just need to puth the ipv4 between brackets @[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] and for ipv6 @[ipv6:...].

spam? simplicity and freedom has a price (personnaly, I have have very, very little spam since I am self-hosted), and don't think corpos won't try to force you to use their servers one way or another... Whose coding the virus? It is sane to presume it is the seller of anti-virus software...
I guess C would be hard-lower-left on the final table; makes me think what are the candidates for upper-right.
But even in cloud computing, the really compelling offerings (ie serverless) is all containers. Xen is only used as an additional security boundary (ie Docker running on top of Xen). Containers are the software abstraction providing the “distributed” aspect of the GPs argument.

And as for Hyper-V, that’s only there for people locked into the Windows ecosystem. You rarely see much distributed computing happening in Windows. Frankly it’s silly to even mention Windows in the same conversation as Plan 9 and other distributed systems.
I guess try to use it as your main e-mail for a few years and you may see...
mine is maybe 10 years? I don’t recall. No issues so far, but started seeing those Microsoft blocks when I moved my brother’s domain over to my server. I hardly send email out, so it could be unrelated to his domain, just that he sends much more email out.
Turns out, actions DO have consequences!
Could use a bit of onboarding, I spent a minute tapping the squares on the left and not understanding why it Wasn’t doing anything. But fun when I figured out I’m supposed to be touching the area to the right to make sounds.
> You are clearly unaware of the legal requirements here.

I am definitely unaware. If you do know the specific law/infraction, please link to it as that would help the discussion.

It doesn't help to vaguely hand-wave (emotionally I would argue) "Someone should go to jail!!". As I asked above, which people? How much jail? And what are the clearly defined laws?

There are engineers that deal directly with code critical to public safety and the amount of verification, compliance, testing, authorization, permits, processes, legal reviews, etc involved in that pipeline increase costs and delays 10-fold, but they are extremely safe and reliable.

Not saying we shouldn't do this for an emergency device, but it most certainly will not be cost-free, few engineers would want to be involved and consumers will not want to buy it.
I prefer phones that are still getting security updates.

You talked up your phone a lot but omitted what model it is, for some reason.
Have you been to a football game (or equivalent) in a big stadium? Depending on where you're sitting, the television experience is often quite frankly better than the live experience in many regards. If you're way up in the nose-bleed section, the cameras are definitely going to give you a better view, in terms of up-close shots, and angles you can't see from your seat. And some people want the commentary from the TV announcers as well.

Honestly, watching football on TV is better than the stadium for many reasons. Yet people want to go to the stadium to be part of an immersive experience (and so they can tell their friends "I was there when so and so broke the NFL rushing record", etc.). So going to the game and still watching a broadcast of the game simultaneously is a desirable experience for a lot of people.

And I'm reasonably sure the same basic principle applies to most other sports that are played in large stadiums.
I think everybody’s going to be a little different. But think single digit or low teens on average.

I’ve been powerlifting and body building for about 8 years now. I hover right around 15%. I don’t have a 6 pack. I doubt I ever will. I tried once a couple of years ago. My energy level was so low, and I hated all the food I was eating (chicken and broccoli 2 or 3 times a day, as little salt as possible, etc.). I got to 12%, had a 4 pack, and called it a day. I’m happy where I am now. Not ashamed to admit that I didn’t have the mental fortitude to accomplish the task.
And please walkthrough the process so I may see whether to get one. Well last time I read about Paton around 2000 I presume : https://www.dantestella.com/technical/f235plus.html only 6Mpix but for quick and good scan great. He scanned 12,000 of his.
Just resubmit then, there’s no penalty
This wasn't either of those things however, this was a company saying 4 days ago quite clearly that they would not act as a gatekeeper of speech(whatever it may be) on their protection services, due to some pretty clear implications that everyone should be protected by default from criminal activity(ddos attacks). Note that this was pretty much the speech made by cloudflare, I'm not saying they as a private company need to act as an utilities company/police/firefighter/etc, that's an entirely different discussion, but then then 3 days later going back on it?
I think a primary root cause to all motivation problems is that our brain is programmed to be lazy. By lazy, I mean, we are programmed to exert the least amount of effort possible to secure our safety and physiological needs.

And, in today's developed world, it's EXTREMELY easy to secure our safety and physiological needs. Once these basic needs are met, we find ourselves in a position where happiness is a function of self-esteem, fulfilling relationships, and physical health.

The problem is that these higher goals take hard work to obtain and maintain. And, our brain isn't wired to want to do that hard work - as long as we're safe & satiated, it wants to check out.

As a result, we have to learn to trick our brains into feeling motivated to achieve these higher goals.

One way to do this is to attach failure of goal completion to something scary like loss of income (see OP's article) or social status. This will trigger motivation because you're endangering your safety and physiological needs (which is what your brain is programmed to react to).

Another way is to learn to silence your subconscious programming (that voice in your head that convinces you to be lazy). You can do this with meditation or by following the 5 second rule: When you feel yourself hesitate before doing something that you know you should do, count 5-4-3-2-1-GO and just start moving towards action.

Finally, after you're done taking action and doing the hard work, you'll feel good. Taking time to notice these positive feelings, and building a causal connection between hard work and positive self-esteem makes goal completion easier as time goes on.

Being lazy is completely natural, and instead of feeling badly about it, we should just accept that our programming is misaligned with the modern world, and learn to take action towards being happy despite of it.
I tried the 'add detergent to the pre-wash-cycle' part. While it seems to make sense, it also caused a lot more rust spots on cutlery. The detergent is just too aggressive that way.
I use 5G a lot when I'm "working from home", and my area has pretty good coverage. The one thing I've noticed is that unlike LTE there doesn't seem to be a correlation between connection quality and bandwidth. I can have a full 5G connection indicator on my phone in some places, but get slower speed than if I switch to 4G/LTE. I'm guessing my phone shows the connection quality to the local 5G node, but can't tell me when that node's uplink is degraded.
"The sweet spot for having control over your email while simultaneously minimizing unforseen headaches is to simply own your domain name"

You would think. The issue no one seems to think about is that you need to make sure to pay for the domain for the duration of your life(at least). Otherwise, as soon as you lose your domain you lose ownership of your email. Any one that has control of the domain has control of your e-mail.

This dawned on me after a place I worked at reactivated the email I used for work when I worked there. It has my name but I have 0 control over it. Lucky for me I never used the email for things other than work so it's not a big deal. It is still bothersome that they can do that and I have no say so on its use.
Every team and situation is different.

The point of agile is to teach your team to solve problems. To build ability to spot whenever something can be improved and then understand what is expected of them and the tools at the disposal.

An "agile from a book" is just a set of answers to some common problems. Your team will be none the wiser about how to deal with other problems that were not addressed by the book author.
Ask HN: Mac OS vs. Windows in 2022
Not talking about the hardware, but the general experience overall. I know Windows has gotten a lot better with WSL these recent years, but I haven't touched Windows for 10 years now.
Peeps here who have had experience with developer-friendliness and tooling in both these platforms, can you comment?

Thanks a lot!
You have no idea of the actual baseline though. Perhaps the effects of one glass of alcohol on blood pressure and some random internal protein already give light drinkers an average extra three days of lifespan, which would far outweigh your one time a beer killed someone.
The question is not even what doctors think warrants a follow up. The question is what a malpractice attorney could construe as warranting a follow up, if it turns out later to have been real.

Once a scan exists, doctors are essentially forced to act on it. If an algorithm for deciding which scan results to pay attention to were so solid that it would hold up in court, that might make more scanning reasonable on the margin? I dunno though.
I do find it that Instagram, basically a gateway to Onlyfans, is doing this.

How will we react in 10 years when we "discover" that Onlyfans' verification system can be duped with fake documents?
Well, I kinda like it -- less things to care about, more reason to leave at 5.

But it's counterproductive for the company, and some experiments a developer may want to quickly do will never be done at all. It kills a lot of creativity. The same holds, of course, for restricting internet access so a dev might never find out whether an interesting looking github tool really is good (for doing productive work!). Also, the company probably wants their products to run on a diverse zoo of machines and OS versions prior to release.

So why a company would take away such access on dev machines is a mystery to me -- probably misguided (and futile) attempts to keep in 'control'.
I had my fair share of iOS bugs as well, the worst ones are clearly the broken account syncs
This is a horror story for a parent to read. Preventable death of a 13 yr old girl, just starting her life. Tears swelled in my eyes. And yet, I am convinced that the NHS “system” does not care in the end. Diluted responsibility of a bureaucratic setup, where doctors are incentivized to follow protocols and protect themselves from liabilities. No reward for going above and beyond, no punishment for not caring. And we keep edging towards more of this all over the world. I think this is an example of the costs we will pay.
The WOW elf/linux client was never released. Time for rewards?
I see two things that are valuable in 5G. Number is campus networks (basically run your own cell network company wide) which makes sense in some use cases (production plant with a lot of IoT devices) and number two is the (potential) low latency. I feel both could be solved by different technologies but a cell based approach isn't a horrible idea.
There aren't any good speech-to-text models that are open source. If you think there is one, please reply with a link. The cloud ones are far superior.
Oh yeah. CallPath and DirectTalk. And AS/400's. That's pretty much where my career began. I'm just glad I dodged the bullet of getting heavily involved in RPG programming...
In Facebook's case in relation to genocides they enabled and promoted, they said that their have to prioritize their attention and don't have the resources to give the same level of care to all nations globally. They produced a list of economic powers that they are primarily monitoring. This was in part responsible for unchecked flagrant abuse in countries outside the global north.

Yesterday I was reading it is because Google pay such a low salary. If they increase it to like 3x-4x of current, all bugs will disappear on their own.
Agreed there’s no point bloating the prison population, but remorse is a poor parameter for sentencing IMHO. We should have fixed penalties for this kind of crime.

If someone killed my kid with their car I’d prefer the perpetrator to simply be never allowed to drive a car ever again. If they try, then they get time.
Adding to the happy medium is to teach your friends and family to use Thunderbird so they can easily GPG encrypt [1] their emails keeping the nosey email providers off the email body. Also teach them to use the IMAPS (TLS) endpoint for their mail provider, usually port 993. There are probably simpler how-to's with pictures, I just do not have any of them handy.
