Could you explain why you do not like password managers?

I started using KeePassXC a few years ago, and I think it's the best thing since sliced bread.
Not at the Supreme Court.
It’s that the “errors” from “off by one errros” comes after concurrency (the hard things being: cache invalidation, off by one errors, naming, and concurrency—not concurrency errors)
First question is a bit subjective, but Hennessey and Patterson is a good place to start.

It's thick but reads fairly easy in my recollection
Wow. Does their job require a CDL?
All these predictions of imminent technical downfall of Twitter read to me like predictions that in the next release Python will get slow. It's surreal.

As for the non-technical aspects: Mastodon is social media, just like any other, with all the associated faults. Don’t expect miracles.
I am interested. I think this idea deserves serious investigation. I also have a lot of ideas how you could make scientific methodology transparent.
I hate JS only frameworks. What’s the point of making things more complicated? HTML makes it cleaner and easier to work
Because there are many abusive people. If you could exclude only trolls and abusers easily on Twitter then I’d think you’d have less curation going on. But there isn’t so to protect themselves, people curate.

It’s either that or leave that platform. I did this with Facebook and never got involved with Twitter. My life is great. I get plenty of opinions I don’t agree with on HN, and it’s great.
I would prefer a bullet too, compared to an e-bike, at any speed.

Does that mean we should all ride bullets traveling at 20 km/h?
There has definitely been an "upwelling" of far-right and explicitly reactionary content over the last few weeks. Like you, I've assumed that it's always been there, but presumably was being auto-moderated and wasn't receiving mass engagement from the site's leadership.
Twitter’s $5B-a-year business hit as Elon Musk clashes with advertisers
Yes, there are entire companies devoted to making them. Here are a few:

> A lot of this article is about additional concerns that are being leveraged, while avoiding the core issue.

What’s the core issue that is being avoided here?
Elon has interacted frequently and positively on Twitter in the last few weeks with alt-right figures like Ian Miles Cheong and Andy Ngo, e.g. agreeing that the slogan "hands up, don't shoot" is somehow a "lie", and retweeted a weird homophobic conspiracy theory about Paul Pelosi almost immediately after completing the acquisition. I don't think there was good (public) reason to believe these were his politics a year ago, but it seems that he's either shifted or made a deliberate cynical decision to court them to build the userbase. (And little about the Twitter acquisition has seemed that planned.)
Digiconomist’s model is flawed and doesn’t represent actual mining electricity use or carbon output.

Also he’s a central banker, so not exactly motivated to fix it.
I disagree, some decarbonization pain is unnecessary and unhelpful, like the biofuels example I gave.

What makes you think we won't survive 4C? I'm not saying you're wrong but the last IPCC report I read suggested global collapse was more on the order of 6 - 8 degrees.
What’s the big deal? Isn’t this person free to choose where they spend their time? If they dont like Twitter they can leave. Isn’t that what freedom is all about?

Seems to me that many on the right don’t actually care about freedom… but more about their ability to subject others to their ideas… apparently freedom is the right of republicans to force themselves on others and restrain their critics from leaving.

What other interpretation should I make of someone objecting to an individual exercising their first amendment right to freedom of association?
Was the moon landing, or even the entire space race, about a "challenge" or pantsing the Soviets? Despite all the mythologizing we now do about the last century's dabbling in manned space missions, we sure seem to have abandoned the concept now that there's no geopolitical dickwaving to accomplish.

On a slightly different tangent, The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress [0] suggests that whosoever sets up the lunar catapult first will likely become "masters of Earth". I think I'm going to start learning Chinese! [1]

I don't see any value whatsoever in removing carriage returns just so you can say it's one line of code. It might make it sound clever, but it really isn't. It's not good to read, and that to me is much more of a minus than a plus.
"Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven" - John Milton.

Seems a lot of people agree, what with the popularity of portal fantasy and isekai reincarnation stories. Magic does make living in them more convenient than real history.

Still, getting glory as a bona-fide warrior "hero" is a different kind of happiness than modern urbanite... But it is still a kind of happiness. Some of us might prefer it.
Two of the moderation issues that I can think of are 1.) volume of information, and 2.) depth of knowledge.

Some unpopular views are overly represented on any platform. This is the reason why far left/right get amplified to be more mainstream opinions, despite being truly unpopular. Another thing is similar to self-censorship like you mentioned, but self-censorship in the sense that if you feel that the community has shifted towards a certain bent, then one might move on from that community, since it no longer represents what they're looking for/what they feel is right.

Finding legitimate information is also tough: there's been instances of journal-published data that was verifiably false, since the journal that it was published in was founded in order to push specific data/viewpoints. But, the average person doesn't know that, and probably won't be familiar with what journals are popular, legitimate, etc. While some people (you, I, and probably others on this platform) like delving deep into this sort of stuff, most people (I'm venturing a guess here) would stop short at "research shows that..." when fact-checking something.

I wouldn't argue _for_ banning, or at least would argue that there's a better way to do it that doesn't also burn people who are participating in good faith. But, most people won't/can't do the work to fact check everything since there's too much info and truly verifying everything would be a monumental task.
I’m wondering if “time alone” includes time spent virtually, with friends.

I know it’s not the same as actually being in the same physical place, as others, but, for instance, gamers spend a ton of time together. Probably more than they would IRL.
Doesn't it feel sketchy to run a terminal that isn't even packaged by Debian? I run a few non-packaged things, but I don't want my terminal, or shell, or kernel to be "some code from a some person on github".
Well I agree he needs to take some time to vett news sources as his (correct) position that more traditional news (like CNN, AP, etc) can not be trusted before tweeting out links, which he deleted shortly there after, I do not call that "promoted" but today words have no meaning so sure.

This is the think impossible standard to have, and one of the reason many people like Elon is the fact he has no filter, and gives no fucks. Elon streams his thoughts in real time almost to twitter. That to many is refreshing to have a Billionaire engage engage on that level, not filtered through PR and Lawyers like the Gates and Bezo's of the world..

Elon will post a poll then act on the poll. I know many hate that, but many many many LOVE that.

In short, it is a type of Populism.
Big issue in healthcare is a lot of legacy integration brokers that had SFTP bolted on post-release using the existing UX and config framework for FTP, which had historically been the dominant protocol in healthcare. Depending on the broker sometimes key auth isn't supported at all, it is supported but has to be configured in a strange way that's different from the normal SFTP/FTP config, or it's supported just fine but the company has business processes like paperwork for their integration subcontractor that still assume FTP is used (this latter one does unfortunately come up...).

You'll see the same thing in financial software for basically the same reasons.
I say what I see. I don’t make anything to be anything. Liberal thinking vs conservative thinking is very old and has much deeper roots than “people making it about teams.” It’s a way of thinking. I personally believe that it’s largely genetic. Is been like this since the Neolithic. Modern American politics aren’t fundamentally different than roundheads vs cavaliers. And yes, loneliness is definitely a problem that is a liberal problem. After living in both worlds that’s my observation.
Shame on you for kicking and screaming while we drag you to the path that saves your own grandchildren.

Android inherits its DUX from the Java ecosystem, which standardized on Maven decades ago (with a brief bout of friendly competition from Ivy, which should honestly have become the standard, but I digress). Build tools are all over the place, though; Android doesn't support Ant any more, but you can still build projects with Maven, Gradle is officially supported, and Google themselves either use Gradle, Bazel, or wrap Gradle in Bazel, depending on the team.

As far as UI, you have to go out of your way to not use Material Design, as it's the default theme on all devices since Android 5.0. The good thing is that the UI technologies are becoming increasingly unbundled from the core SDK; you have the View-based Material components library and Compose, which can be bundled with your app and used everywhere. SwiftUI ships with OS updates, so you have to use the version that shipped with your minimum target, which feels like a byproduct of Apple's culture more than a technical limitation.
It's not that he misses it, that's his point. Comparing wealth to people 100+ years ago as measured by technology is better than comparing it to people living today. I don't know how convincing this is as an argument though against higher taxes. Probably not that convincing.
It is hard to know for sure, but it seems like a very hard temptation for any hostile, totalitarian government to resist?

What do you mean by this? It's a proposed mine, no workers are employed yet.
Maybe they should send a cop undercover to bust these street racing gangs.
It's worth keeping in mind, in the context of police complaints about underfunding in the article, that the LAPD's budget is literally more than 50% of LA's entire city budget. They have nearly 10,000 officers.
Personally I have no problems with voter ID laws (especially if they are implemented over time with an appropriate level of support). However, I don't fully understand where you stand on this crypto/KYC topic - it almost seems like you are half-trolling, half-serious. Buying crypto without KYC is becoming almost impossible, and hacky workarounds are not a scalable solution. So that's not an argument against or pro crypto.
I've recently used Hurl [1] in some projects. It seems to have a similar goal and I like i a lot though it misses "imports" which makes modeling of more complex workflows hard.

The author could have thought about this claim for like two seconds and realized how ridiculous it is. Rockefeller and multiple generations of descendants can live off his wealth. Clearly he was able to buy more with his money than an ordinary American can buy.
Major Canadian Crypto Exchange Coinsquare Says Client Data Breached
Amazon started requiring FCC information on RF devices this year. Late is better than never.

While Amazon -- given its vast resources -- has no excuse not be a good citizen, obviously the burden on retailers and marketplaces needs to be balanced.

The local mom and pop toy shop selling a few uncertified RF-controlled cars isn't exactly the ideal place to initiate enforcement actions. I'd suggest volume importers or facilitators of volume imports.
> keeping his account active

Considering how easy it is to impersonate people on twitter, this makes sense.

> If Elon's alt-right, you're alt-left

This is a hilariously nonsensical sentence.

“If you don’t like my hero’s politics, there is only one set of politics that you could have! There are only people that love his posts and antifa super soldiers high on estrogen blockers plotting to take down capitalism with their polycule!”

Buddy do you remember the other day when he posted a baseless alt-right conspiracy theory about Nancy Pelosi’s husband being in a sexual relationship with the guy that attacked him?

It was almost like… alt-right… trolling
That sounds hard to deal with! I haven't had the exact same experience, but I have spent periods of my life living in places where it was hard to build a social support structure.

One thing I noticed: it sounds like you're thinking in terms of the two most extreme decisions (stay "here" forever vs. "leave" your family to move to the city). You might be able to leverage your remote-work position to try different places, in case one of them might be a good fit for you.

Sublet an apartment or stay in a long-term AirBnB in a city that you're considering, and during that time (a couple of months, maybe?) dedicate significant energy to meeting people. If it doesn't work, then you have a better grasp on the reality of the situation - if it does, then you can extend your experiment from months to year(s).
Very well put, esp when the government is known for unapologetic surveillance and repression.

It's just a question of money.

Another issue with Python is that the language semantics are much more subtle. This is an excellent talk that shows how even operations that appear simple in Python can be much more complex than they appear: https://youtu.be/qCGofLIzX6g
Big wide stroads enable this to happen in the first place.

If you change streets to not feel like highways then a lot of this would be impossible to do in the first place. However that would require a bigger reckoning with car culture in the US that it seems we’re not ready to have yet.
Do you have examples of "actual" alt righters reacting this way? Or are you speaking for yourself?
Most distro-default/DE-default terminal emulators don't really make you do 'more' than just have a base terminal emulator. The extra stuff (in the likes of gnome-terminal for example) only surfaces when you actually use it, except for when you have duplicate key binds. If you don't use a DE, or don't like Qt/GTK based engines, urxvt and xterm are the best remaining options.

Zutty is an option if you don't mind trying (often) unpackaged software, but then st would fit as well with the performance difference being that Zutty leverages GPU rendering for more performance and st doesn't seem to do that by itself.

If graphics isn't your thing and you're just on the frame buffer directly, there is fbterm.

A lot of the 'advertised' emulators seem to be targeting aesthetic and 'cool' marketability, some are even based on electron or try to put filters on the output...
I just don't understand the need to announce your decision to stop using a particular social media platform. It's a free web service. You can use it or not. I guess I should have made an announcement when I switched away from Gmail.

"Hello everyone, I have decided to leave Gmail. I'll keep my account active, and still receive email there but I'm definitely leaving. I can't support Google which is a poster child of surveillance capitalism. I’m going to stop emailing pictures and observations and forwarding worthy voices and all that stuff. Remember: using my data without paying me."
If someone is willing to pay that price, then that's what it is worth to them, simple as that. That's what market is there for.
Idk man, this is a successful project that's half a decade old[1], has over 40k stars, is wildly popular in eg. the UnixPorn and TWM communities, and is packaged by most other distros; I don't really see any cause for concern ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Unsure how that was measured, but I'd like to see urxvtd up there. I'd bet a beer it's statistically significant faster. :)
just like anarchism itself
>> agreeing that the slogan "hands up, don't shoot" is somehow a "lie"

I guess I (a left libertarian) that put facts over narrative is now "alt-right" then because having actually read all of the Investigative reports from the DOJ, and state agencies one has to conclude if not a "lie" a HUGE distortion from the actual truth of the events.
I think another thing that's causing it is social media ... the thought of ...i want to have the perfect family too and post photos of such so I get tons of likes too for what I created (the picture of me with my beautiful family). If i cant achieve that i'll be alone.

That's just one thing yet not sure how big or small of a driver it is.

Money tends to bend the laws. Mexico also has freedom to roam the shoreline, but rich people keep trying to reserve their beach fronts, and in many cases they succeed. Ironically, hotels have a harder time doing the same.
Buy more quantity of fewer possible things to choose from, which is worse than having more choice. I think this is the crux of the author's argument.

The article he posted was clearly some Weekly World News type beat. For real, go read the article. It reads like an infomercial designed to scam boomers. I think Elon is just like many other fried boomers believing things that are obviously untrue because random website meta tag says so while reinforcing his previous views.
It doesnt stop determined attackers who have access to a botnet, but it does stop low sophistication attacks.

If brute forcing anything is a concern then addressing that concern should come first, focusing effort on fail2ban is a cost that is probably better spent elsewhere.
This. I live in south LA and I’m a block away from a street with regular takeovers, mostly on Sunday nights. It is a residential street with seven (!) lanes of traffic. Part of the problem is admittedly that LAPD does not enforce road traffic laws because doing so would inconvenience their friends and family, and they don’t care about the (mostly black or Latino) residents of the residential neighborhoods in which these happen. But takeovers don’t happen in cities that are designed for humans because they’re physically impossible.
I grew up in a once "super relaxed beach town" called Huntington Beach[1]. I was quite happy going to the bars on Main St and even driving up to LA for the clubs. After a few years of leading this night life, I wanted to further my education so I went to grad school on a part-time basis. That completely replaced my night life with "motivated" professors and fellow students.

After graduating, my good friend that I led the night life with went to grad school and I got a part-time job at the local university where my students motivated me.

TeXmacs is one of those software projects that would see a lot more use if it had a better name. A lot of people just assume it’s an emacs package for editing LaTeX and overlook it, when in reality it has nothing to do with emacs or LaTeX.
If "traditional nuclear family" is a euphemism for anti gay marriage, that's closer to the opposite of 85% in the US these days. Even so I've never heard that given as a sufficient reason to identify someone as alt right, although YMMV.
I agree. We should also force western companies to produce their products in the west too if they are needed for national security. A controller or motherboard in a switch or router being manufactured in China can have any number of bugs put in, up to and including making "fake" silicon that is backdoored.
I've never heard of these things as being 'alt-right.' If, anything the ability to have a 'traditional' family with a single wage earner and a full-time homemaker mother is simply an overt mark of privilege (because who else can afford to raise a family on a single income in this century?), not a mark of being right-wing.

If you're saying that other, non-traditional family structures are something degenerate, yes, you're alt-right, but I think if you're doing that you already embrace that label.

I still don't see a logical relation with my previous comment:

"I don't see what they could possibly gain, all it would take is for one genuine case of a backdoor to be confirmed and then all that investment would be nearly worthless."

And your previous comment: "People used to say same exact thing about russian gas"

I'm struggling to find any analogous situation to a single verified breech of trust destroying billions of investments in the gas sector of Russia.

One shipment of contaminated gas (?) is not going to have any major effects on the gas trade.
