What do you mean they were not lied to? Specifically by Pfizer or the US government? Because there are numerous instances where Biden and Fauci said that if you get the vaccine:

- You won't get Covid.

- You won't transmit Covid to anybody else.

- Covid vaccine is / will be super effective against variants.

None of those were true after-all.

If you're talking about Pfizer fair enough, they didn't outright lie, they lied by omission - as I did not see them coming out to correct those misconceptions. They were more than happy with demand on the vaccine being inflated because of those very misconceptions and raking the profits in.

Do you truly think Alex Jones's speech inflicted a billion dollars worth of damage?

I'd love to see an itemized bill demonstrating that. If he actually did cause that much real damage, sure, it would be fair. But I can't possibly conceive how he would have caused even $100k in real damages, much less a billion. It's equally, if not more dangerous, to fine people ludicrously large, arbitrary amounts of money because they spoke something that went against public opinion.

Compute-in-memory can increase computation performance by many orders of magnitude.

The fact that most people just immediately try to find ways that these advancements can't work rather than trying to actually make them work is the reason that these things take so long to go from research to product.

And it's also an example of the type of weak cognition that will mean un-augmented humans will be irrelevant within the next quarter century.
My defined benefit pension was basically handled by one person through a number of decades (and a couple acquisitions). If you wanted to start receiving your pension or whatever, you called so and so. I assume some degree of chaos would have ensued if something unexpected happened to her one day.

There's no such thing as a 'lightning brick'. Apple used to include a usb-a to lightning cable with their phones (and sometimes a usb-a power brick). All iPhones sold from Apple today come with a usb-c to lightning cable, thus already satisfying the use case you present.
> porting to a new platform would mean rewriting platform-specific parts of the app

That may be part of the process, sure. The formal definition isn't clear on exactly what process is necessary to target a new environment, just that some action is necessary. Introducing a new compiler is one possible action to achieve the result.

However, when you do have to modify the code like you suggest, typically you are adding the environment specific aspects in #ifdef-type directives, so you're still not introducing a new codebase to maintain. It's still the same codebase that will be maintained just as it always way.

And even if you want to split hairs, no matter how you slice it there is no implication that the product of the port is what you will maintain. I still have no idea where that is coming from.

I've cut that down a bit. When I wondered in old town Mombasa, Kenya last year, some people got out of a taxi and warned me to turn around and go back because I was in a very dangerous area for tourists. It was certainly quiet, but it was clean in the city.

Living in Seattle, there are certain parts of downtown that I would normally feel comfortable walking through but was warned by locals about gun and drug violence.

There are many examples of lost tourists in Mexico or South America that get approached by drug traffickers on YouTube.

It is extremely difficult to go wrong in Vietnam, but there are many places that appear peaceful but are actually run by crime.
It's possible, but I believe the design is such that sys-net is untrusted, so an exploit there is no more risk than any other use of an unencrypted connection on the network.

> I’ll take the tradeoff of much lower taxes and much higher pay any day.

Taxes are not (only) because of that. In fact, the employer needs to pay those 3 months often.
I genuinely never understood the people that travel to live like locals, avoiding tourist spots, popular attractions, etc.

Popular things are popular for a reason, I just can't fathom missing out on them on purpose, with the sole reason being that they are popular.

If I pay thousands for flights and hotels, it's definitely to see what's unique about the place, and after having lived in 4 very different countries (and my girlfriend in 10+), I can tell you that the locals' way of life is definitely not unique anywhere in the world.
Would a toy manufacturer be sued in Brazil for selling toys without batteries? “Batteries not included” is such a common marketing phrase it was used as a major movie title… in 1987.

What if they required some “expensive” proprietary battery that was sold separately? (Power tools do this in the US)

For me, I don’t know anything about Brazil, but this lawsuit only makes sense if they misled the public into believing there would be a cable included. Likely, it was very clear about was actually included and people just didn’t read it or care enough (already deciding they’d buy a knock-off). I remember this moment in time and it was pretty well known in the US from my recollection. Even my non-tech friends knew about it and were kind of upset that it would cost them more and all their existing cables and accessories would be obsolete.
I'm coming up to a large segment of work where we'll adding search with elasticsearch and this was the assessment I came to after reviewing PG FTS.

I would say, frankly, that if you already have a PG database and

1. you want better full text search than a non-existing solution.

2. you don't need the excellent searching like we've come to expect from search engines.

then use the full text search feature your PG database already has. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to use a PG database for FTS but I think its a good solution when you're in the right position to use it and its not too shabby.
Your logic is flawed.

You can build something people want and which is bad for health, they're not mutually exclusive.

People commonly want things that are linked to negative health outcomes: alcohol, sugar, fast food, lack of physical activity, working a high stress job, living in a city, watching the news, etc.

Personally, I take the position that people best know what's good for them because I don't see good alternatives to that.
I blame black hats. If it weren't for viruses and exploits there would be a lot less pressure to keep things updated. Remember how much flak Microsoft got for vulnerabilities pretty much ever since Windows got a networking stack? Meanwhile academic networks got along fine for decades running on unencrypted NFS/NIS.
Something to do with their TurboVision replacement I think.
The Japanese company that I worked for, for almost 27 years, had a similar policy.

Everyone in Japan, rotated, at least, every two years. Often, more frequently. This included very senior-level executives.

I'm not sure that it was to combat fraud, but I'm sure that was a knock-on effect.

I would work with engineers for many years, but they would be working on different projects, and might suddenly appear in the project I was on, many years after the last time I saw them.

They also had a lot of vacation/holiday time, but the company told them when they would take it. I think that more seniority gave you more discretion.
Classic. Someone gets a lower-level customer service rep on twitter to make a statement based on incorrect and incomplete information about Airtags in compliance with regulation.

Media blows it up into this insane thing, that Lufthansa is evil, and doesn't want you to track your bags, so they can lose it with no repercussions.

Lufthansa clarifies things (once again, in line with law) - and then the media uses works like "face plant", "baffling" and "awkward". Assigning emotional context that ridicules Lufthansa.

This plays out all the time with the media and is a huge part of the reason why confidence in the media is at a all time low.
Don't use AWS, GCP or Azure. Use Digital Ocean and the likes. Cheap VM compute, managed databases. And for the most effective setup, just get an affordable VM and chuck https://dokku.com/ onto it. Boom you have your self hosted Heroku. Cheap bandwidth, opportunity to scale.

AWS is a fools errand at the startup level unless you need some of their specialised services. Stick to "tier 2" cloud providers like Digital Ocean or Linode. If all you need is servers, database and storage, then don't waste your money on the major cloud providers. They are the wrong choice for basic compute.
This is useful context, thanks for sharing it.
Almost all modern chargers utilize USB-C female, at least from the major brands (Anker, Ugreen etc.)

I'd be happy to chat with you to understand what you're looking for. Everyone starts off somewhere, and only becomes a C-suite executive or successful founder after a long journey. Coaching is one way to supercharge that journey. I've received my share of good advice and coaching, both from chance mentors as well as paid professionals. It certainly exists and should be used.

I am interested in building out a coaching and advising practice for technical leaders. It's something I've been doing professionally in the role of a manager and department leader, and am eager to expand it. Take a look at my HN profile for a bit more about me and to see how to get in touch.

A few years ago I did stuff like this using Puppeteer. This is not one of the advertised use cases, but normally Puppeteer comes with a fully featured WebRTC implementation, and for my needs, also included the WebAudio spec. Using a combination of these, I could route, transform, mix, broadcast audio without changing or renegotiating the connection details, and also preserve the privacy of the peers by having only the IP of Puppeteer be actually exposed. It worked far better than I had ever expected.

FWIW I do enjoy walking around town aimlessly - if you haven't done it, you should try. It's how I've experienced Boston, New York, Munich, Belgrade and San Francisco. Of course I find a few places online that I should check out, like the fortress in Belgrade or the Eisbock and gardens in Munich. But "aimless walking" through ubran areas is the essence of peace for me. I am rarely happier.
Let me fix that for you:
> Would a toy manufacturer be sued in Brazil for selling toys without a charging cable?

The answer is: Yes.
Could start by rotating the members of Congressional committees. Effectively making Congress the pool.
Is the appliance maker responsible for faulty wall sockets? Is the wall socket maker responsible for faulty wiring? Is the toy maker responsible for faulty batteries? The automaker for faulty oil?

This makes no sense. The government should fix their charger regs and prosecute companies who don't comply, if the chargers are causing electrical fires.
Yes, like almost every cable, male to male. Also almost every USB-C charger is female.

Huh? Every iPhone for sale on Apples site today includes a usb-c to lightning cable. It works with all my usb-c chargers from other companies.
> My phone came with a USB-C to Lightning cable,

That's interesting. I got a USB-C charger when I bought a Pixel phone, but it was the only one I've ever owned and it got lost pretty quick. I remember thinking how annoying it was that it didn't work with any other cables in the house. Every other USB-C device I've bought came with a USB-A charger and USB-A to C cable, including my current phone.

Apple is one of the last holdovers from an age where every phone company had proprietary cables and chargers. The way I see it, they are happy to make user and developer hostile decisions in the name of profit because they know their base is too entrenched to extract themselves. This particular one is annoying, and while probably not _that_ bad when viewed in a vacuum, but there is an undeniable trend.
I will never forget. Some startup claimed they could find the best candidates for the job using "AI." They had a whole bunch of BS selling points. I think they even convinced a fair amount of companies to get on board too. I was thinking "how can people be so stupid!?"

I then found one of the "features" was that they have the managers/bosses take the exam. They then offer a package that can weigh candidates based on correlation to their boss. Well, that's what it did. The marketing pitch was something something, view if they're compatible with your culture, something something.

I then realized its genius. Charge a ton of money to do basic linear regression and spend 90% of your money on giving your clients an excuse to hire whoever they want without appearing bias. They would even appear "virtuous" because they let the "AI decide."

Just awful, lol.

Of course, I never got to see the internals and I don't want to slander but the "test the boss, correlate with new hire" was 100% real.

Sidenote: how come when a police officer does something and gets fired for it, the headlines always state 'ex police officer?' The headline reads to me as if he was not a police officer at the time of the offense but the article reads as if he was. It feels confusing on purpose.
Independent of if the criticism is valid, it isn't gender motivated.

I'll agree the criticism isn't valid.

I disagree about the invalid criticism being gender biased or motivated.

The subject just happens to be female. That doesn't exempt them from valid or invalid criticism.

This isn't difficult really.
I'd tend to avoid buying used long underwear or wool socks.

The "cheap, serviceable, but used" is... fairly picked over by the locals (and especially the homeless).

Consider San Francisco for a moment and the daily occasion of tourists who suddenly find that the fog rolling in the evening is cold and then buy the "cheap" (but horribly marked up) jackets that aren't the right size in which they stand out like sore thumbs.

Or they could go to the Salvation Army store and buy a winter jacket - consider the availability of them there.

Or they could go to REI or Farm and Fleet (I know there aren't any F&F in SF) and buy a new winter jacket there.

After childhood, locals have winter clothes that often last 5-10 years or more (and they pay for durability). My winter jackets are from '10 (I've got a medium weight photographer's jacket that I got in Keeble & Shuchat in '01 that I still wear... wish I could find something like it again). My father's winter jackets are in the 10-20 year range.

I'm also going to note the plural. Locals will often have two or three "winter" jackets depending on the weather.

The only time you get a jacket for a season that is cheap is for a child who is going to outgrow it by the next winter.

Things are more complicated. You can indeed have a very fast network driver in userspace (in fact for many use cases userspace networking is faster than the kernel). But where do you put the rest of the network stack?
Exactly what I do.
No, my take is that you should manage your risk. If you don't want the risk of the state changing its rules don't tie your employment to that state.

My second point is that professionals should already accurately tell the truth to their patients.
But that's literally not the case. There are ATM cards that reimburse you for fees and also give you great exchange rates.

Again, this is assuming that there isn't some sort of black market for exchange that's causing published rates to diverge from real rates, but that's only the case in relatively few countries.
Just curious, why do you need so much storage?
> Okay, name one person.

My current employer's CISO or my former employer's equivalent of the CISO. Both were hired prior to 2017 and had relevant education and expertise. And no, I'm not going to risk doxing myself to someone accusing me of sexism for saying that CTO/CISO roles should be filled by people with relevant education.

> Compsci is not an infosec-related degree.

Are you kidding me? I am beginning to lose confidence in any ability to have a reasonable conversation with you.

Four years of CS cover a lot of material that is directly relevant to information security, even without any formal coursework in security. Most CS degrees require several years of programming, an Operating Systems course, and courses like Networking, Cybersecurity, and Cryptography are often offered as electives. Even the basic courses offer a lot of basic knowledge about the work being managed.

Is it everything you need? No, of course not! That's why the criteria -- from my first post -- is BOTH relevant education and also relevant IC experience.

What is inappropriate is a CISO who has never written or read a single line of code, never configured a piece of IT equipment, etc. It would be like a CLO who has never read a legal brief or a chief medical officer who has never treated a patient. They won't even have a basic high-level understanding of what's actually going on in the work they are managing. I've seen this, first hand, from a (male) executive who did not have a technical background.

You swallowed the yellow irrational outrage pill. Lufthansa had a customer service rep who (correctly) stated that things with transmitters must have a airplane mode (also true) - without knowing enough about airtags.

Now you are assigning an emotional context ("entrust my life", "incompetent") to a simple question of if Airtags apply?
I think this question is very intriguing and weird in the same breath, like why was X not invented a few decades earlier.

I would honestly like to read papers on it both from sociology and scientific discovery point of view to contrast what justification are we provided for this.

Which IMHO seems like a problem of pure chance, basically invention of X-1 pushes invention of X ahead and so on.

Really curious how people would explain aberrations and delay in theoritical discoveries against physical inventions in this respect as well.

Cause I don't think relatively would have required gravitational theory but I would wager it would have definitely helped.
