Honestly, I have yet to hear a good argument for why people who commit fraud and other white-collar crimes shouldn't serve jail sentences. I also believe that strict sentencing for white collar crime (like we do for literally everything else) might actually be a deterrent.

I have heard the argument that being overly punitive will force businesses to be too conservative in their dealings for fear of accidentally breaking the law, but I just don't buy that.

Please just use pgp.

You need expiration, permissible purpose, revocation, identity, etc embedded into a ‘key’.

Pgp is really really good at doing these things and has been though the ringer on security. Yes pgp sucks at its original Purpose (encrypting email) but it’s excellent for signing things.

Isn’t that the problem? You see your own shallow dismissals as tediously neutral, but others as violations of the guidelines.

For example, in this comment here that I’m replying to, you caveat what you say, and yet you don’t caveat any of the comments I’ve cited as ”your opinion”, despite them being the same value judgements of someone else’s writing.

“Please stop <value judgement of comment>.” Is about as textbook of a “shallow dismissal” as one could get.

You don’t apply the same rules to yourself, so there’s zero reason or incentive to follow those rules for the rest of us.

Edit: Hey, within an hour of writing this comment, I'm now slowbanned (a thing you at one point claimed was removed from HN). So I guess you don't like dissent either, dang?

Edit2: Since I can't respond (you muted me), the community doesn't evaluate your activity objectively; you're worshipped, and aren't give feedback that represents a reflection of your actual behavior, so an appeal to the masses here isn't an effective argument. The community may disagree with you, but it's actively detrimental to say so, and will apparently create negative repercussions for the folks who do speak out, creating a "chilling effect", preventing you from getting the "bloodbath" you apparently think would be necessary for you to change your behavior.

Additionally, the fact that you've made it harder for me to interact on HN as a result of this conversation is an indication that everything I'm suggesting here is even more true than I initially thought.
How should we rank stupidity versus corruption? My point is that we are outraged at this guy's transparently stupid act, but I opine that we would be less outraged (or not even notice) if he was corrupt to the same extent that he is stupid. Neither is a virtue but as we stand in judgement then maybe our standards should be challenged.

With our current technology it's impossible to make a flat frequency response speaker. It's possible for amps, mics, DACs, but not for speakers, unless you talk about million dollar facilities.

So you need to pick from different non-flat speakers, which means listening test if you really care. You can't figure out which one you'll like just from looking at the frequency response graph.

That is awfully hard to calculate, and even harder to calculate fairly. Hollywood accounting, "unrealized gains/losses", and the way film companies calculate every individual digital copy of a pirated movie as a separate monetary loss all indicate that there is no way such a law would not be abused.
Yes, if my wording of "one market" is confusing hopefully this makes it clear:

You don't really get in trouble for just growing your business within a market. You get in trouble for abusing your dominant position in one market to influence another.

You can see this in the restrictions identified

> those contained in ‘distribution agreements’, requiring manufacturers of mobile devices to pre-install the
general search (Google Search) and (Chrome) browser apps in order to be able to obtain a licence from
Google to use its app store (Play Store);

They used their position of having a huge influence with Play Store to force manufacturers to include google search and chrome, which are unrelated.

> those contained in ‘anti-fragmentation agreements’, under which the operating licences necessary for the
pre-installation of the Google Search and Play Store apps could be obtained by mobile device manufacturers only if they undertook not to sell devices running versions of the Android operating system
not approved by Google;

They used their position with Android to force manufacturers to push google search and the play store by not letting them even build other devices without approval.

> those contained in ‘revenue share agreements’, under which the grant of a share of Google’s advertising
revenue to the manufacturers of mobile devices and the mobile network operators concerned was subject
to their undertaking not to pre-install a competing general search service on a predefined portfolio of
devices.

They used their advertising business to force out competitors in search. You can argue this is one market if you want but it's clear this isn't competing on the merits of google search.

An irrelevant claim then, as the comment you originally replied to wasn’t about “feature branches”.

You originally replied talking about how hard branches are to merge, but then revealed you also use branches to develop features, thus revealing a fundamental lack of understanding about how git works.
Gosh. I know this is a cartoon, and it’s funny… but I’d love to debunk content like this. It is really hard to get over the common (incorrect) view that marketing==privacy invading ads.

The fixation of hatred on marketing is one aspect: promotions. Of which advertising is a subcategory.

Another aspect, that most do not hate, is product.

Marketing needs to be reframed by the technology community as market-making between suppliers and customers; and not be as reductive.

If you’re a product manager, you’re fundamentally doing a marketing function. Only in recent decades have product managers been placed within engineering orgs to facilitate communications, which in turn has spurred some to perform revisionist history.
yes
on one hand, "a substantially large number of people who do not know each other are lying in the exact same way. Such a conspiracy would be highly improbable."

and yet: "doctors are bad at diagnosing and are highly inconsistent. Additionally there is political pressure to skew the data as well as social pressure to suppress data" to me this seems like a highly improbably conspiracy without evidence to support.

The linkage of covid vaccines ti this phenomenon relies entirely on two 'conspiracy' like trains of logic. From what I can tell this disorder is complex, and the diagnosis is likely difficult. linkage to EBV is an endeavor. EBV and CoV2 have very little in common. As far as I know EBV has no link to ACE-2 antibodies is stated as the driver for COVID vaccine linked disesae. The link to EBV sounds at a best tenuous as the 'timing of infection' of a virus that is in >95% of people is very difficult to study. A quick search process studies that link to many other conditions and vaccines (HPV, DTAP, others) which are not mRNA vaccines and not corona viruses, and have no obvious linkage to ACE-2 Abs.

There very well may be something here, but rigorous logic is the way to find it, especially in a world where "Nothing is true and everything is possible" due to the proliferation of misinformation.

You simply use "intuitive mathematics", in other words: no formalization. That's at least what I got when I read books on set theory.

Löwenheim-Skolem implies the existence of a countable model of ZFC. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%B6wenheim%E2%80%93Skole...

"What I meant to say is that multiple models are not the only reason for something to be true but unprovable, the incompleteness theorem also holds in more general conditions." I can't give a clean rebuttal for this, but I believe this to be profoundly mistaken. It might be technically correct though, depending on how you'd formalize this statement.
To formalize math you need a logic that has some properties: it should be decidable whether a proof is correct, you should be able to write it down, it should not be contradictory. If you take these together the only way a statement is unprovable, is if it is independent from the axioms, i.e. there exist multiple models.

It only has to remain engaged, engaging it in cars with push button parking brakes requires electricity to drive a small electric motor at each wheel.
> there's an obvious use-case for owning your own money.

There's also an obvious reason people don't do that. Money under the mattress - whether it's dollar bills or a hardware wallet - is vulnerable, too, and has minimal recourse when it's lost to carelessness or hostile action.

Governments seize crypto all the time. Exchanges pause withdrawals. Entire shitcoins collapse entirely. People lose their keys.
With no axle it'd also be a lot easier to allow them to turn 90 degrees (or 360(+), I'm just not sure there's any point), and have all-wheel turning, for optimal (and stupidly easy) parallel parking.

I used to make Lego vehicles like that (well before I could drive), because it felt so silly as a passenger being parallel parked I suppose.
Because ads are what's paying him to do his job.
If you're driving 75 mph and one or more motors suddenly lose power and it fully brakes, that's a certain death in my opinion.

I've posted this link before (as a ShowHN) - this is my attempt to "replicate" color fonts using my JS canvas library.

As far as I've met people, there are three groups:

- Those who believe that anyone who doesn't vaccinate "isn't intellectually capable of making good medical decisions"

- Those who are opposed to vaccination because they believe in conspiracy theories

- Those who are are either pro- or anti- vaccination, but realize it's a complicated issue, with evidence-supported pros and cons, that other humans of reasonable intelligence can have different opinions than themselves about

Unfortunately, the first two groups tend to be the loudest and most religious about it.
That is easy to accommodate as you can design the electronics such that when there is no power they cause maximum braking force and dump energy into the braking resistors. This can be done completely with power taken from the motor itself and if it’s not turning to generate power, then I would expect the parking brake system to engage, eg: a spring defaults it to “On” and power is used to keep it disengaged.
> But those purposes are only allowed because they serve greater purpose. On their own they are meaningless.

This gets it backwards. In most places, we haven't arranged society as "everything is banned except for this list of allowed activities," more as "everything is allowed except for this list of banned activities."

We're not necessarily good at divining utility of actions when deciding what should be banned, either.

That any individual activity serves some greater good is a happy accident, there's no natural law that individuals will take actions that are net positive when you zoom out.
> but it could be that they had a lot of folks who were analysts but weren't contributing much to remediating issues.

Neither feature testers (does it behave as expected) or security testers (is it secure as it does it) are expected to write fixes. Writing fixes needs to be planned in the sprint and is better worked on by an expert on that system.

> they're hiring a small number of security engineers (maybe even one) to not only actively look for security issues, but to also actively work to remediate them and improve code security posture as well.

If this is true, it could seriously affect their ability to ensure the system remains secure. Sometimes a security issue will take a long time to hunt down, and perhaps require a large rewrite to deal with it. Whilst this person is dealing with this, they are no longer looking for new issues.

I'm just not sold this is anything but a cost cutting exercise, and could (theoretically) lead to bad practices in the future.

Even for those with "Nothing to hide (tm)", the only rational approach is privacy maximization.

Suppose your future circumstances change and you find yourself in a situation where you do have something to hide. The mere fact that you have "gone dark" can be observed and used as evidence that you are now engaging in activities you believe need to be hidden.

Anyone with kids will recognise this - you're not worried when they're yelling and screaming. You're worried when they stop yelling and screaming and suddenly become too quiet.
I'd imagine this was introduce adverse failure modes like - slamming to a stop without warning within seconds on the highway if power is lost, rather than coasting to a halt... and then being untowwable as the car can't be put into neutral.

Tesla's that lose battery are already a challenge to tow as the parking brake cannot be disengaged without power.

So looking into it a bit there are what is called Eddy current brakes. In the section of disk eddy current brakes it talks about the power tool implementation where there is just a metal disk and the magnetics are pulled away from the disk when the device is powered on and passively return to the disk when power is removed. Something like that could work, but I am unsure of the size of magnets or disks necessary to adequately stop a vehicle. Most likely you could also add a normally closed relay hooking the motor to a resistor load. So when power is applied the resistor load is disconnected, and in a loss of power event the motor is directly tied to the resistor load.

Seems like modern web developers don't use tables as much as they should. I blame the "missing generation" for this. Tables used for layout was considered so bad, that many stopped using tables for tabular data.

To explain more, consider this evolution of tables based for layout

1. Early 90s/2000s: Tables used for layout as no good alternatives were available

2. The "popular" kids hated tables for layout and tried to use floats etc. A 3 column layout using floats was considered "the holy grail", because it was so hard to get it to work. Most developers continued using tables until Bootstrap and other frameworks managed to take some of the pain away

3. Flexbox is introduced as an alternative to floats, but with its own issues.

4. CSS grids are finally here, after only 30 years of waiting for it and we can finally get a 3 column layout working without too much dark magic.

To me it seems that they years between 2 and 3 was kind of "lost", where developers got the impression that tables were bad even for tabular data. I have seen so many developers display tables as a collection of divs, or just giving up and using a picture of a table instead. The losers are of course accessibility and the semantic web.

Now it seem developers are rediscovering tables due to the superior accessibility they provide and they are "allowed" by the hipsters to actually use tables for tabular data again.

Next step: Maybe realize that there are other tags than h1 and div? One can only dream.
Exactly. And why would it be so sudden? It's just not adding up.
I think the most interesting is that brands that claim to have the best R&D and most advanced technologies are simply picking supplies from 3rd parties.

I try to explore a language using different problems every time. If you've already done a project or solved a problem, I think your previous solution will detract from getting a feel for a language's features and conventions by inspiring you to follow a certain pattern.

There's a pretty causal relationship between starting my unfinished side projects and me trying a new language or library.

I use advent of code to really dig deep into a programming language I sort of know but want to learn to use more. I plan on learning modern C# this way this year, it's been almost a decade since I taught myself the language at this point.

Yes.

The person claiming Google Fonts would be "illegal" in Germany is misinformed.

It is simply considered best practice to self-host Google Fonts now and you are absolutely safe doing so.

The basics of privacy law is basically don't violate the privacy of your users for no good reason. There is no technical justification to use a Google's third party service for fonts, especially as that potentially allows Google to track users. (You could still use Google's hosting if you were to get prior user consent though. Just have a fallback font. That wouldn't be worth it though.)

So yes, you can use third party services and CDNs on your website but it needs to be either technically necessary or you need for user consent beforehand.
