> The standard solution is to limit the webapp to be accessible on VPN, and limit VPN to be accessible on MDM controlled devices, and limit MDM to be accessible on company owned devices.

Didn't the "BeyondCorp" zero trust model pretty much kill that, or at least show there was a better way to restricting access to secure apps than a VPN?
I've also spent time profiling shell startup and found conda's init wasn't fast. (And that's consistent in fish shell, tol) Your found solution is elegant; I'll adopt it. nvm and rvm both have initializations have a decent perf hit, too.
You can order a reasonably good passive radar on Alibaba right now.[1]

The DVB-T/T2 Passive Radar (external radiation source radar) itself does not emit signals, but receives the echo signals of non-cooperative radiation sources (radio, television, communication base stations, etc.) reflected by the target for detection (as shown in Figure 1). The radar is composed of antenna, multi-channel receiver, and signal processor: the dedicated reference antenna receives direct wave signals, and the monitoring antenna array receives target echo signals; the multi-channel receiver amplifies the signals received by all antennas, performing frequency conversion and A/D sampling. The signal processor processes the output signal of the receiver, and outputs target information after reference signal purification, clutter suppression interference, matched filtering, target detection, parameter estimation and tracking processing. Unlike other passive detection systems, DVB-T/T2 Based Passive Radar(external radiation source radar) can achieve single-station positioning and speed measurement, and can detect more types of targets (can detect radio silence targets, such as autonomous cruise drones, birds and balloons), and is particularly suitable for applications where there are restrictions on electromagnetic radiation and high detection performance requirements.

Type of Target: Low-altitude targets such as drones, balloons, paragliders, and general aviation aircraft, including non-cooperative targets with radio silence

Detection Range Directional model: 5 to 10km (DJI Phantom 4), Omnidirectional model: 2 to 4km (DJI Phantom 4)

All suppressing this does is cut the US out of the market.

Decreasing human population is the most sustainable future.
Criminals extensively using crypto proves that it is the case - under authoritarian regimes criminals are acting with virtue. Obviously things like Tornado Cash facilitate ways to obfuscate chain state, but further things like ZKPs will continue to bolster the role of crypto for transacting globally with low relative risk when under surveillance or police states.
Add this to your zshrc

# This lazy loads nvm
nvm() {
unset -f nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" --no-use # This loads nvm
nvm $@
}

Now, nvm only loads when it is explicitly called instead of loading in every shell. In my case, it made a very visible speed difference.
It’s a story similar to nuclear power, where people found it wasn’t that hard to extend the life of nuclear reactors a lot longer than originally planned.
How do these magazines write glowing reviews of people like this Sam kid? I understand it is hard to do due diligence on entities that are purposefully opaque etc. But shouldn't these magazines question everything, isn't that the very definition of a journalist's job, before writing reviews (good or bad)? They did the same thing with Holmes. And many more examples.

Or do they just do some light work, like a 12 year old school boy does for his class presentation at the last minute, and turn in their stories and move on to the next story?
Super superficial (?), but the "press and hold" example on https://hyperscript.org/ has a bug (feature? :) in that if you move away the pointer while pressing, then let go, it keeps cycling, and won't stop even if you go back and press and let go again. It will stop if you press outside the button and let go inside, so apparently the actions stack. (On Firefox Linux.)
By the time you implement the rest of the protocol, you might as well have an actual microcontroller, at which point you don’t need the 555.

(Please don’t build an EVSE without the big relay and its associated safety controls. No one needs an outdoor cable supplying ~240V pin-to-pin that’s live while you hold it on a rainy day.)
Irrational optimism can mean different things (not limited to the choices below) -

1. You have decided to reject rational criticism in favor of cynically taking apparent gains.

2. Your mind has a reduced capacity for rational criticism because of the euphoria of a situation.

I think it's pretty hard to say what's happening in the moment, and after the fact it will always look like #1 to the general public.
Huh? Modern OSes will of course free the memory (as well as any other resources) when the process exits.

If you know your program has limited runtime you can treat standard heap allocation functions like an over-engineered arena allocator. :)
Top 80% of women compete for the top 20% of men on dating apps. And then, there is a funnel where unpartnered women race to find a partner in their 30s for those who race to have kids before fertility rates decline.

No one likes online dating, but everyone still defaults to it because third spaces where pairings traditionally occurred are evaporating.

The pun about "Area 5150" is int includes "area 51" (a US military base where, besides new weapons testing, according to conspiracy theories, aliens may also be investigated or kept - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_51) and "IBM 5150" combined.

The pun about "8088 MPH" is the "Intel 8088" was used an "MPH" obviously stands for "miles per hour", a rather fast pace.

In some sense, the audience for these demos is small, because to be truly appreciative of the technical skill of the demo coders, you probably should have programmed the IBM PC (and its various graphics modes) in assembler.
> My only feedback for you is this: Charge more.

This advice just won't die in these Show HN discussions. Please show some evidence to support your assertion.

> At the very least double that to $12

Every tool listed in the post costs way less than $12/month. Those are established companies, selling to large businesses, and they probably have more information on pricing than a random HN commenter.

A shallow "charge more" with nothing to support that advice does not add anything to these discussions.
That doesn't seem like the correct reading to me. The health consequences of isolation appears to have its own body of research. The article summarizes and cites these, but doesn't appear to be intended to engage with the question of what the health consequences of isolation are, since those are argued or established elsewhere.

So the question is how bad were lock downs for health, not if they were bad.

And anyway, reduced physical activity is one such consequence and it's not clear why you would control for it.

Not really. If it instantly terminates the program without recourse, it's not an exception system: by definition, exceptions come with exception-handling of some sort.
No, because excluding commercial users is a field-of-use restriction, and you're not FOSS if you only offer a license which imposes a field-of-use restriction. Which is fine! Just don't call it FOSS.

In my experience, new teams just tend to rewrite everything anyway. We have this cultural delusion that we write code for posterity when in reality it rarely lasts more than a couple years no matter what. Technology changes too quickly.

The main problem is that transparency has been possible all along. All those investors _CHOSE_ to invest into opaque structures, rather than companies with open books / transparency.

Because people get wrapped up into cults of personality. And Silicon Valley has mastered the art of reality-distortion-fields.
Good catch. Thank you.
As I wrote in another thread, IBM abandoning Smalltalk for Java was the biggest blow, in a way Smalltalk was IBM's .NET to put in more modern terms, used for their IDEs (Visual Age), OS/2 RAD development and 4GL like language across all their enterprise offerings.

Until the day Java came, and they pivoted everything into Java.

How is that any different from every other company/individual making political donations?
In a financial services firm I worked for, I had to help this intern (maybe 19, 20 years old). She was well dressed, well spoken etc, but didn't seem too keen on doing any actual work.

Later I found out that she was the kid of a VP who also worked there. Must be nice to have well-connected parents
Looks good. What would be the difference from e.g. Basecamp?
Reasonable but death. Rather than become a part of the world, this immense value would be a mere glimmer, would not get adopted at any notable scale.

It sucks. Whats happening now isnt fine. I wish so much the world could recognize value & merit & allocate some support for it.

But all the rationalization in the world doesnt change the base truth that this plan would mean death.

I encounter this in the tech field. Coworkers look down on married with children and will actually voice this out loud at work. I’ve had coworkers say that I am part of the problem, that we need to stop reproducing in order to reduce climate change. About 15% of my coworkers have specifically stated they are not having kids due to climate change or that bringing new kids into a falling apart world is cruel.

Anecdotal I know, but this seems to be a pretty common viewpoint in left coast tech circles. You can read comments on here along the same lines. Sure some social circles will have less or more than my rough 15% observation. Would be interesting to see the actual numbers.
I always use this technique. It make no sense to free() all the memory just before the exit().

But the prerequisite isn't whether the program is short-lived, but rather that the memory usage pattern is "alloc often, free at the end".
> The "design philosophy" behind TempleOS was schizophrenic delusion

Forking TempleOS and working on it is the fetishization of schizophrenic delusion, so at the least it should stay consistent with the schizophrenic's clearly expressed ends. If people want to do their own thing, they should come up with their own thing.
Merely tasting sweetness causes an anticipatory rise in insulin which shuts down fat metabolism. Best to go cold turkey, unfortunately. You can control cravings, however, by raising your fat intake to the point where you're too full to find eating more appetizing. You will still lose weight like this on a ketogenic diet.

FTA: Google Play team has responded to my appeal saying that they will not be reinstating the app and that I should address the complainant directly and resolve it with them, the complainant should allow Google Play team to reinstantiate the app.

I know it sucks, but I understand that decision completely. The DMCA was specifically created to safeguard web sites against copyright claims against content posted by users. If Google ignores a DMCA takedown, they become a party in a copyright infringement claim that’s, so far, is purely a case between Instagram (via the company they hired) and you.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Millennium_Copyright_A...:

“DMCA Title II, the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act ("OCILLA"), creates a safe harbor for online service providers (OSPs, including ISPs) against copyright infringement liability, provided they meet specific requirements. OSPs must adhere to and qualify for certain prescribed safe harbor guidelines and promptly block access to alleged infringing material (or remove such material from their systems) when they receive notification of an infringement claim from a copyright holder or the copyright holder's agent (a "notice and takedown" process). OCILLA also includes a counternotification provision that offers OSPs a safe harbor from liability to their users when users claim that the material in question is not, in fact, infringing.”
This seems to be less a study of behavior than a hunt to justify a feeling.

Social isolation has been an increasing part of the culture since we started replacing human interaction with 'social' media. When combined with the short duration of most pandemic isolation it seems more like people are trying to conflate loneliness with some external force rather than accepting that it is a normal human state.
I've been to a company event a couple years ago, for a big Scandinavian tech company, and the main speaker's point was this: The best thing you can do for the environment, better than recycling, cycling instead of driving a car, etc., is having one less child.
So it doesn't seem to be that fringe, unfortunately.
I know it’s not the question you asked, but I don’t think there is likely to be 1 reason. Our society is so complex and diverse that this and every other socioeconomic indicator is the confluence of dozens of different factors and forces that interact in non-obvious and non-linear and mostly unobservable ways.

Look at all the explanations being suggested in this thread. Which one is right? Maybe all of them! Each on their own contributes a little piece of the puzzle, adding up to the effect we see.

This myth of monocausality leads to very bad policy decisions, where people jump on an explanation as the One True Cause of the Current Thing. It’s oversimplifying and polarizing and moves us further from truth and progress.
> If there wasn't a major downturn

There was no downturn when Theranos collapsed. These schemes all eventually break down and tumble upon their lies.

Worldcom also collapsed in 2002. I don't think it was related to the Tech Bubble if I'm remembering history correctly.
I mean, the alternative is that the lead developer runs out of money and just drops the project altogether. If they have an enterprising personality, I see no reason why they shouldn't chase this opportunity as an alternative to letting their project fall apart/get "adopted" by an abusive maintainer.
I can't imagine how full of themselves one must be to think that because they're a subject matter expert they cannot have bad ideas.
First, I suggest volunteering in your community, perhaps finding opportunities at https://justserve.org (if available in your area--does not require fees or religious affiliation). You would likely be surprised at how much joy can come from that, plus encountering a variety of interesting people and experiences. Kindness is never a waste. Sometimes it can give big insights.

And if you want a variety of things, I made a list of things ideas for when someone is bored, from learning music or unicycling, to a balanced program for self-development and service, etc etc. Having some goals and a purpose in life can be a big help. The tech-simple site is listed in my HN profile, then you can click "Fun..." then "If someone is bored...". I think there is a lot there.

ps: I also have some content about choosing a purpose in life. I recommend learning and service, to lift self & others the best one can.
Great. Also, I think I found an issue - timer works slower than it should. I started it with windows timer for 20 minutes and when it stopped upbase timer still had 5 minutes to count down
In case of normal companies there's concrete real-world value being created.

The system goes wrong when they lie about that value or business model (fundamentals) to some degree (sometimes crossing the border of legality), wanting inflated valuations, and because unscrupulous investors want just that they pile on and support the bluff.

But in this case we're talking about cases where there's never even intended to be any such value.
Jellyfin should update immediately for local changes by watching the filesystem.

If you're talking about for network shares, that's just a scheduled task. You can set the timer yourself to whatever you want.
Hardly anyone cared about GCC in those days, most compilers were still commercial.

In fact, GCC only started to matter to UNIX folks, because Sun introduced the concept of user and developer UNIX workloads, and all UNIX vendors followed along, making the UNIX development tools into an additional package one had to buy.

Thus the race to improve GCC started.
Most of the media we use today is only good for a handful of decades at absolute most. If you want something to last more than a century, you're looking at slightly exotic archival gade blu-rays, or something even more exotic like laser etched quartz or whatever.

Hard drives are a non-starter. Mechanical drives have the obvious mechanical issues, and over long term can develop bitrot. SSDs store bits as static charges which slowly deplete. Magnetic tapes seem to be the best option, but require climate control to last for more than a decade or so.

We don't really have any good way to store digital data unpowered for long periods of time. The best right now is just duplicating it across multiple types of media and replacing each as it fails, which requires active attention and functional infrastructure.
Throughout the article, they use NixOS specific features.

Is the maintainer is the only copyright holder? If not, and other authors have contributed under the AGPL, the maintainer can't switch the license.

EDIT: I found this in the linked blog post:

> I can change the license (or sublicense) because I wrote almost all the code myself, and all remaining patches to mold are licensed under the dual license of MIT/AGPL.
> Providers will be subject to significant moderation obligations, including: algorithmic transparency; prompt removal of illegal posts; systems to inhibit the spread of disinformation, hate, and other harmful content; compulsory co-operation with "trusted flaggers" to take down violating posts; and protection for users against false or predatory accusations.

There's just so much to unpack there.

* How is it determined which are the "illegal posts" (in a way which is "prompt" but still somehow has time for due process to occur)?

* Who decides what is "disinformation", and why should it be removed if it is not "illegal"?

* Same for "hate" and unspecified "harmful" content.

* Who are the "trusted flaggers", and can users decide whether or not they have to trust their judgement?

* How is the provider supposed to determine which online accusations are "false"?

Actually, for that last one, I have a clue how it will work in practice. If you accuse any government official of crimes or misconduct, then that is a "false or predatory" accusation and the provider will ban your account. Even if that's not what the rules actually say on paper, I'm sure that providers which take such a "precautionary" approach will be subject to fewer fines under this new regime.
You should not feel anything when you take Metformin. Its effects are subtle and very long term.
I like this reply and agree with most of what is written.

> So when we go back in time in most places, we might not see that much cross-settlement travel, but how dense are the settlements?

Depending on when and where sometimes not very dense at all.

> How much can you avoid other human beings?

You don't need to avoid anyone but going days and weeks without speaking to people was not so inconceivable as it is now.

> If anything, it's the modern American suburb, where in practice we don't need to exchange a word with the neighbors, and most retail transactions are impersonal, is what happens to be historically novel.

That's the slightly different lament of not knowing your neighbors. The loss of togetherness and sense of community. The bad vibes. I agree with all that, you can feel more alone surrounded by an ocean of people than being part of a small tight knit group of people surrounded by an ocean. Conversely, mental health problems have been on the rise for a long time prior to the pandemic. No doubt it brought these issues to the forefront and didn't help things.

All I pointed out is that there is no shortage of precedent or examples of isolation and it does not necessarily imply that your mental health has to deteriorate.

Forced isolation or alienation from neighbors on the other hand is far more likely to be harmful. So is substituting actual social relationships with parasocial interactions
online and apps.
In my experience it is about code reuse and/or maintainability - what if this code becomes a library and is integrated as part of a long-lived program? It would be risky a posteriori to retrofit a proper memory management.

And perhaps, there's something about programming habits. We hear often enough about C having not enough safeties, and one way to mitigate the issue is having "safe" habits. Kind of like how you activate your blinker when you turn even when there's nobody around; if you don't, you might forget to activate it when it matters.
But you never get access to those dollars. You end up owning a scarcer magic bean. And dividends are not equivalent to share buy backs--both from a tax perspective and from a forced diversification perspective.
