No, it's because there are a bunch of Chinese nationalists working in tech.

Your comment reminds me of critiques of Russophobia. Turns out in hindsight Russophobia was completely warranted.
Try 'overcrowding' your children and see what a family court thinks of it...
"Whataboutism" is such a silly word to deflect hypocrisy. You can't take concerns about TikTok seriusly from politicians etc that are fine with e.g. Facebook.
Sounds like you can always just plug it in as well. I’ve heard lots of stories of the Logitech stuff causing interference (I think it’s 2.4ghz IIRC?), and then you also need a dongle. I understand your windows needs (versus say a laptop), but why not just be wired when you need to access the bios?
Also, some developers do not seem to know what kind of impact a production issue can have.

Having something not work during the development cycle is annoying for one person or a team. Having something break in production usually means people get paged and (depending on what you do) the resulting issues can have major societal aswell as economic impact.

In the ops world, this is especially visible if you go further down the stack. (from applications down the the network).

Network architecture moves at a toad's pace compared to webdevelopment, which is a good thing considering breaking the network will usually break every other system inside a IT department/landscape.
Gotcha. I'm not interested in anything Tesla, so will patiently wait until another entity steps up.

Thanks!

p.s. Yeah, agreed, Miatas are a lot of fun.
The Snowden leaks were nearly a decade ago, but I have serious doubts that it has gotten any better since then. The data hoarding for advertisements is just the cherry on top that makes this data more widely available.

I'm not sure why people are believing this. This is just China making up fake charges to offset what they're doing in Xianjing.

This always seems an odd argument for an industry where for most of the last 20 years early money from optimistic VCs has almost been falling from trees. Compensation for technical people has been rocketing even in businesses that haven't actually built any net-value-generating product after several years. Clearly the investors with serious money have no problem with offering huge amounts of it in the hopes of funding the next potential moonshot among the 99 other failures. Would the kind of capex necessary to buy and manage enough infrastructure for most of these businesses to find their market and start scaling rapidly even move the needle at this point?
There's no child labor happening in the US...
Going to guess you didnt read the link in a lot of detail.

There are accusations of forced participations in public spectacles in there, regardless of environmental conditions (ie: heat). If they'll do that for his birthday, would they do that for a world record attempt?

How much of a "good thing" is a world record attempt if the participants are compelled by the state and end up putting themselves at risk?

Further, the stated rationale from Guinness is "we are a family oriented brand".
I can understand them not having done much research about a dictator initially, and maybe being unaware.

Only they haven't actually done anything consistent with that when it has been highlighted this individual is using their records as part of a propaganda machine in a very oppressive state.
They in fact defended "their record holders".

Family oriented? Or profit oriented?
Well, they have been in the focus for several years, now, so shouldn't we settle this first? ;-)
Colleges should admit everyone then let those who pass pass and those who fail drop out. That is the fair way to run your admissions policy. Everything else is BS.
OK, now you've edited your reply to say you believe "nicer" is a synonym for "easier". But, it's just not.
Make good decisions when you're feeling well that make bad decisions when you're feeling impulsive harder. Example: buy only good food / no alcohol / etc when you shop; when those emotions well up that typically trigger going towards the bad thing to consume, it just doesn't exist. It's amazing how NOT hungry one actually is when you actually would have to do so much as microwave something!

Show up daily, even in a small way. BJ Fogg's Tiny Habits stuff goes over this exhaustively, but basically it's better to go to the gym to do 1 minute of exercise than to not go at all, as it's more about building your identity than doing the actual thing effectively.

You should consider changing your relationship with your regret, so you can use it as this "pointy stick to motivate yourself" instead of this dull, directionless pain that pervades your life. This book is great [0].

Ask yourself "would I regret NOT doing this?" often. Would you regret not looking at this Orange Website, even if you feel the urge? Keep looking at your life through this lens to understand what you'll regret, and steer your ship accordingly.

The problem is that advertisers are ultimately vulnerable to governments, not to mention not really incentivised to resist them.

In the end, governments just outsource their spying to advertisers (without even having to pay for the service) and can “ask nicely” for any data they need.
This is why I'm telling you this is subjective, as much as you'd like to reduce it to some "objective" criteria. I broke my wrist a few years ago, and since then typing on anything without key wells is a bad idea.

I've seen too much advice like yours leading to people with some specific problem going "but I'm doing everything correctly, how am I still experiencing problems?!".
I wonder if they had DKIM setup properly?

The Mac mini is closer to a dev board than a MacBook and it's as close to a dev board Apple will get other than the Apple 1. Arguably, a Mac mini is comparable with a NUC and also comparable with a Pi if all you do with the Pi is put it in a case and use it like a PC.

As soon as you desire GPIO, tough luck.
Understandable.

What was the motive for framing the scholar? I read through some of the material and didn't see an explanation of that part.
I'm pretty anti-TikTok - but shouldn't we have some evidence - or any knowledge of who this material came from - before trusting a reporter from Forbes?

I read through the article - but I couldn't find any details on the source this reporter is citing. Worryingly - the author "held policy positions at Facebook and Spotify." Instagram is a major competitor to TikTok - so conflict of interest is pretty strong.

As other posters pointed out - every major company tracks people. We've known about this type of behaviour for decades from big tech.
So basically the SATs are too easy. They could put more advanced math on the test.
Lacks PFS and doesn't necessarily support groups.
I'm confused, Wikipedia lists the Atlantic Blue Fin Tuna as "least concern". Is the author being dramatic or is the wiki page inaccurate?

That being said, the part about people speculating on animal extinction was new to me and saddens me deeply. One wonders in what way such a person views themselves, I can't imagine it being very favorable.
I liked it. There are a few bits I have integrated into my memetic universe. Eg: https://youtu.be/g8vHhgh6oM0 https://youtu.be/KcPx-dHYASU

> > The greatest source of admissions inequity is childhood socioeconomic status

> If we are talking about the US, no, I disagree.

> The greatest source of admissions inequity are shit K-12 education.

You've missed the step where the higher socioeconomic classes opt-out of the shit K-12 education by moving to better school districts, sending their kids to private schools, or homeschooling them.
Is "influencing young people" not covered under freedom of speech? Sure, freedom of speech has limits on harmful speech and such, but I think outlawing something on the basis that it's intended to dumb people down would be an interesting case with potentially far-reaching consequences.
You seem to be confusing extradition and extraordinary rendition? The former is a legal process built on treaties. The latter is a euphamism for a kind of government kidnapping to circumvent legal restrictions, hence the "extraordinary."
> You are being purposefully obtuse or dishonest. You did not answer his question, and you know you did not answer his question.

???

I really hope you have read what I said before commenting.

> Stop being a shill for authoritarian governments. If you really cared about privacy you would advocate banning tiktok and banning facebook. Not this whataboutism nonsense.

Who's shilling what? I already said I want BOTH of them to be fined in the billions?

Since I already disagreed with the spying and privacy violations from what both Facebook and TikTok has done for years. I'd also be in favour of banning all of them if possible. But in the US and given the FTC has given a multi billion dollar fine to Facebook, I'm sure you would want TikTok to have the exact same treatment of a giant fine since they are operating in the US? No?

It's not 'whataboutsism' as I've already agreed with the parent comment.
You might be interested in this little tool of mine: https://github.com/majewsky/jack-autoplug - It's using the JACK API, so it works with PipeWire out of the box. I run instances of this tool as systemd services, grouped into targets. To switch pluggings on and off on demand, I have global keybinds connected to scripts like this:

#!/bin/sh
set -euo pipefail
if systemctl --user is-active --quiet autoplug-group.target; then
systemctl --user stop autoplug-group.target
else
systemctl --user start autoplug-group.target

Pretty sloppy journalism, if you can even call it that. They don’t make any effort to verify the core claim of Chinese and US TikTok having different types of content. They don’t even cite a primary source, only secondary ones like Tucker Carlson.
Sure, and memes are just cats.
> That this is attracting downvotes is not surprising

Your parent comment and subsequent followup are difficult for me to parse. If others had similar difficulty, it could account for the downvotes. I did not downvote your comments.
There is a joke at some point in time where they say pathway electronics is going to merge with etech management. And they're gonna call the new company path-e-tech management. How would a kid get this joke?
We almost did. And while I didn't agree with the man that did that on most other issues, this was one issue he was right on. Unfortunately at that point there was a knee-jerk reaction to everything he did and the ban was successfully stopped.
Did you buy tho?
Is this a troll comment?

> Following the Reuters report, Alabama's state Department of Labor, in coordination with federal agencies, began investigating SMART Alabama. Authorities subsequently launched a child labor probe at another of Hyundai's regional supplier plants, Korean-operated SL Alabama, finding children as young as age 13.

I can't tell if you're being serious, but you have two comments both casting doubt on this article so maybe you are.
The article is reporting on investigations conducted by US authorities, so I suppose you imagine that the US is acting in the interest of China to weaken its own charges against China?

Given all the trash Gladwell has spouted as truth over the years, it's hard to take him seriously. Even if sometimes what he says has merit, it's hard to know when to believe him and when not to.

I especially cringe at the idea that Gladwell is saying it's statistically better to do something, when he has a known history of deliberately misinterpreting data and massaging numbers to get the result he wants.

While I think people should be much more accepting of 2nd- and 3rd-tier schools as options than they often are, kids should absolutely push themselves for the best-ranked school they can get into (assuming they also have a solid program for whatever field/major they're interested in). Not only is it beneficial to surround yourself with people who are smarter than you are, there are also second-order effects to attending an elite university, like making connections that can help you along with your career later. Not to mention that if a recruiter sees two recent-grad resumes that are identical except for the name of the school, they're going to pick the candidate that went to the "better" school.

Certainly you don't want to set yourself up for failure; if that elite school is going to be such a struggle that you're eventually going to be washed out, that's probably not a good outcome, and a lower-tier school would have been a better choice. But, absent that, I think it's good advice to attend the best school you can get into.
Agreed. Really disturbing to read comments like that at the top of this thread. Who cares if China bans US apps, we're not China so why should we ban theirs?
That's why I filled out my Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment so they don't keep my meat on life-support for more than a limited period.
> I really hope you have read what I said before commenting.

The comment was about specific individuals being targeted. Are there any reports of Facebook targeting specific individuals?
> I have no clue what Puma is in this context, but I really think people should do a quick search before they pick names

To be fair Puma has been out and named for over 10 years. It's one of the most popular app servers for Ruby.

The HN post links to the 6.0 upgrade guide, the repo's readme file goes into more detail on what it is on the first line:

Puma is a simple, fast, multi-threaded, and highly parallel HTTP 1.1 server for Ruby/Rack applications.
Static sites comes to mind.
New vaccine to protect people in the EU and worldwide against dengue
Another great option with a similar approach that's now publicly available with a generous free tier is CockroachDB serverless
As someone who grew up super poor, time tends to be one of the only things poor kids have as much of as rich kids. Is that universal? Of course not, but name something better.
Facebook, at least, is under FTC consent order and has very strict reporting and compliance requirements. I agree the the US needs similar controls over all major data generation schemes - at least w/ FAANGs, the jurisdiction is available. With TikTok, there is no leverage.
Can't have your cake and eat it too. Either the license is viral (conditions imposed on user A still apply when A passes the software to B) or it's not.

If you license your code to anyone under the Apache License, that person is then free to redistribute the code under the terms granted by the Apache License, which is obviously missing this $1,000,000 revenue restriction.
It doesn't matter what the numbers show on that, because it's a strawman argument. Most people promoting the preservation of the SAT, (certainly the OP by implication of his comments) is that a high score on it is a sufficient metric for college aptitude, which has a low cost barrier of entry for the poor but intellectually gifted. The people who look to do away with it seem to wrongly assume that the former group are all saying a high score should be a necessary condition for a competitive applicant.
I’ve been following the “BIM” movement as an outside observer - a rough TLDR is it’s essentially devops for constructions - bringing architects and planners and builders together using software.

I highly recommend the YouTube channel “B1M” if you’re interested in the topic! There are some massive companies (bluebeam) behind these massive software systems - which us web tech folks rarely hear about.
Employee comments about jobs in that stamping plant.[1]
Some of the comments are totally generic and probably fake. The ones that say twelve hour days for five to seven days a week are probably real.

Did this just disappear off the front page? I refreshed and it is totally gone after being the top story.
I think the point being made is that this is not just about business and trade relations, it's also about freedom of ideas, expression and censorship.
> I switched to just Security, and while I miss the ability to make and push changes to hundreds of thousands of machines to get things done, I don't miss any of the pressure or blame that automatically got lumped onto the sysadmin shoulders every time anything went wrong, and the complete lack of appreciation of all the times nothing went wrong, that were entirely the result of a tireless, efficient systems administration team.

This reminds me of a joke my networking collegues used to tell to the new hires.

Welcome to the networking team, where we are responsible for the network, aswell as anything that runs on the network because developers never bothered to pay attention in their networking class.
I suggest the following if the user hits 5000 submissions:

Define the 5000 as a soft limit.
Define something like 10,000 or "100 days after reaching the soft limit" as a hard limit.

When a user hits soft limit, you keep storing their submissions, but you don't let them see it unless they upgrade the subscription/buy more resources (Mailchimp's Blocks pricing strategy seems sensible to me). When a submission is received after hitting soft limit, you send your user an email telling them that they received a form submission, but they cant view it till they upgrade. (You keep notifying them). You can aggregate those notifications daily/weekly after the first few to reduce costs.

When the hard limit is reached, you stop storing those entries. And send the user 1 email telling him that you changed behaviour.
Those 230000 were Chinese citizens, please read my comment again. I am neither American of Chinese.

Oh, yeah, you could totally upload nasty pictures. What I’m questioning is the original claim that people have been using these mechanisms to trigger automatic internet censorship systems to kick people off game servers.
Pricing is different in different markets.

In Atlanta, I was renting in a 1br condo for 7 years; when rent went up 15% in one year, it was free (after principal subtraction) for me to buy/move to a 2br in the same building in 2017. (Even more advantageous as a friend moved in). By 2019 comparable rents for a 2br were 2x my total payments.

BeOS/Haiku was like that.
Interesting thought; maybe however women are more prone to illness throughout life, sadly.
High barrier to entry to be a sex worker?
No argument here. Though there’s tough competition for some of those Nixon-Reagan era reauthorizations of ESEA which set the stage for standardized tests being the primary benchmark for everything (and priming the pump for education publishers to create/expand the test prep industry).
Not just an insane amount of money and effort, but likely decades to develop a reputation that could rival that of a Harvard or MIT. When you're starting from zero, you're not going to be able to attract top-notch faculty.
Cargo cult? No. It's not perfect but end-to-end encryption is demonstrably better than whatever we had before. WhatsApp encryption is the same as Signal's and it has already defeated police and courts here. Some judges got so pissed off they ordered WhatsApp to be blocked nation-wide.

We don't live in a perfect world. I'm glad that everyone I talk to is using something this secure by default.

> bringing developer practices into ops: version control, testing, code reviews, continuous integration, etc

In my opinion, this last subset just doesn't work well for a lot of branches of operations.

Sure, it might work if you run stuff in AWS and have an operations team managing that, But what if your team is responsible for things like Storage Arrays, networking equipment?

Doing continious integration and code review on some of these is hard if not impossible
I have various friends/acquaintances/prior coworkers running 8-9 figure digital/IT agencies premised on very similar workflows.

Straightforward to you may still be magic to most non-tech people. They will pay an insane premium to not have to worry about this type of stuff.
Nether llvm nor clang are GPL, dual licensed or otherwise. They're Apache 2.0[1] (or formerly a quasi-MIT/X11 license[2]), as is swift[3].

The binaries of the compilers they release with the platform are also built with internal forks that have some differences with the public llvm/clang/swift trees and that wouldn't be possible with gpl.

I have been working on this Rust based JSON flattener (https://github.com/kindly/flatterer) to XLSX/CSV/SQLITE/PARQUET/POSTGRES for about 2 years. I finally made a WASM based one for CSV/XLSX which is really easy to play with. You can use it via a url (if the data has CORS headers), for example https://lite.flatterer.dev?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdummyjson.com%2....

The main difference with other converters/flatteners is that for one-to-many relationships (lists of objects in JSON) it produces a multi table output with keys to help join the tables together. Essentially produces a relational schema, along with some type information, of the JSON provided. For simple non-nested JSON it works too, but is a bit overkill.

Its all opensource and free, and I think that it will become more and more useful as JSON/Graphql APIs proliferate.
You don’t understand how the vast majority of compute workloads pan out for regular businesses if you think “elasticity” has any relevance at all.
They'll certainly have more time to study than they will for extracurricular activities, social clubs, volunteering and all of the other "soft" ways kids pad out their college applications.

In terms of fairness across racial and economic strata, standardized tests like the ACT and SAT are the fairest ways to judge college applications.
Considering that Stratva has revealed classified information merely by its ordinary function of publishing users' workouts when (foolishly) used ny soldiers in-country, the threat of an app tracking everyone's location to an enemy is terrifying - target any particular leaders, soldiers,pilots, etc., &/or their families, or just the command posts or barracks where they are located. Just connect missile guidance to the live coordinates.

At this point, letting in any software or hardware from China or Russia is beyond idiotic. We can all live just fine without Kaspersky spyware and TikTok videos sending home our locations.
It is also deliberately different to exchange files used for mechanical CAD, even though it uses the same syntax.
