Command-A does select all. On Linux if you use defaults, ctrl+A will do that. If you change your gtk keyboard shortcut theme to ‘emacs’ it will do the equivalent of ‘home’ instead (which is what ctrl-A does on a Mac). To delete a message under these conditions, you can usually do e.g. C-A C-K. But that’s not so suitable for eg a high-risk text box on a buggy site where you want to regularly select all then copy in case the site crashes or loses your data.

However, "don't recommend" is very different from "mandate", which is what is happening in the US.

If this was literally any other medical procedure, the "trust the experts" crowd would be protesting the US ignoring what the rest of the world thinks.

Because there is no “client list”.
Nothing needs to be changed about your kernel to bypass it.

You can outright install the openonload drivers, preload to intercept epoll, and it literally just works.

Going to efvi can cut out ~1us but that requires specifically targeting efvi, and has more operational / code setup pain. Works on stock Linux all the same though
That + the sound of a dot matrix printer were my first thoughts.
So all the ills of society are focused on the car. No wonder then that drivers feel so persecuted, which was the root of the yellow vests protests.

I'd be surprised if anyone at all, specially developers, expects a browser to do anything other than transfer data to/from the internet.

According to a preprint from the Harvard (!) Center for Virology and Vaccine Research [1], there seems to be no difference in BA.5 antibody responses between the old/monovalent and new/bivalent vaccines.

Also worth mentioning that BA.5 is not the dominant strain in the US anymore [2].

Mandating the bivalent Omicron-specific COVID-19 booster seems highly questionable.

I don't think moderation can even be compared to government censorship. Moderation leads to more diversity of viewpoints expressed, as different places on the internet moderates in different ways, and almost anyone can start a competing community that moderates differently. The opposite is true with government censorship.
I think it's more widely shared than one might believe, because of the people who don't like systemd there's a contingent that really, REALLY hate it.
It’s only shameful and remorseful if it comes to light. Otherwise in most cases things leading to the above would be avoided from the outset.

On the other hand, once found out, they typically own up, take responsibility and step down from the role.
Canada is recommending boosters after 5 months from the previous.
Worth noting that this part of the docs is from a while ago, so wasn't generated by the new model. While I do think this is hilarious, I wish GPT came with a "just make shit up" parameter so I could adjust it as per my needs (ie. making my friends laugh vs trying to get work done).

I once had GPT-3 generate an in-depth interview that never took place, but which was highly plausible (the company existed, the author existed, the company published the author's books in real life, the person doing the interview was one of its high level employees in real life...)

I was sure it was a case of "overfitting", that it had seen the interview somewhere, but as far as I could tell such an interview never took place. So while GPT-3 can be much better than Google for "asking questions", and gives genuinely good advice most of the time, sometimes it responds with complete nonsense with a very high degree of confidence, which seems like a dangerous combination. (Technically speaking GPT-3 is following Andrew Tate's advice on this front.)
However maybe also learn to love a language that embraces them at the same time so you don't come away with a poor experience because of only trying a language that has poor frameworks (Go, JS/TS, etc).

Definitely try something like Python + Django, Ruby + Rails, Java/Kotlin + Spring to get a feel for what a mature framework can really do.

Then if you find you still don't like frameworks and the style of programming associated with them then sure, find a home in one of the ecosystems that are more inclined to roll it your own way.

Frameworks certainly aren't for everyone but using bad frameworks and then pretending all frameworks are therefore bad is highly prevalent among more recent developers. Try the good ones and then make up your own mind.
Aak HN: What direction to take as a solo-dev?
I have been browsing the forum for tools/routes/frameworks as a solo-dev to take. I have seen people switch from PHP to Java and Spring Boot or people go from JAVA Spring Boot to .NET and Angular.

I wanted to ask other solo-devs who have tried different tools to the one that they are now, why did you switch and what makes it better than before?
No, "not having evidence" isn't the same as having evidence against. They clearly state in that website that it's ok for people outside of there recommendations to get the booster.
Here's a page that talks a bit more about Apache APISIX: https://apisix.apache.org/docs/apisix/getting-started/

I find it a bit ironic that they don't support Apache2 as the web server, you know, it being an Apache project and all, instead going for Nginx or OpenResty (though admittedly they're great projects).

Even nowadays Apache2 is pretty okay: https://blog.kronis.dev/tutorials/how-and-why-to-use-apache-... (especially if you disable .htaccess for less disk I/O and use it with a single file based config)

They work everywhere. Decades ago, the Home/End/PgUp etc keys might not work on all terminals.

You can use the standard keyboard movement keys if you prefer.

(The letters are mnemonics, Back, Forward, Next line, Previous line, End of line, start of line uses A as the first letter. The control key tends to do smaller things (like move one letter or line) while the alt/meta key does bigger or less-common things, like move whole words, sentences or paragraphs.

Unless it prevents enough transmission to create herd immunity then any transmission prevention it accomplishes is effectively worthless unless the hospital system is overwhelmed and we need to slow down spread. This because slowing down spread but not actually bringing it to zero (not necessarily directly, but through herd immunity) still means everyone will be repeatedly exposed and anyone susceptible will eventually contract the virus anyway.

We need an endgame that makes sense.

> If I say "Islamic fundamentalism should be the norm" I will fully expect to be boo'd at, shouted down, blocked, shunned and made unwelcome. That tells me my views are not welcome. I can choose to stay, and keep using my voice, but it'll be counter productive.

100% agree. But it works both ways, and you cannot say that "cancel culture" is a problem: they are just doing that.

> So i'll make a space where I can say that Islamic fundamentalism should be the norm, and find like minded people. And if I find enough, we might start a party and get votes. Enough people vote and my islamic fundamentalist government runs the country.

Uh? That does not make any sense. If they get enough votes to be elected, it means that the majority of the population will not boo them in the first place. And if you argue that by organizing in a small safe place they've found strategies to convince more and more people, you are just saying that it was wrong (for a freedom of speech point of view, I'm personally in support of some moderation) to boo them in the first place: if their opinions are convincing people, when you were booing them, you were doing exactly what the concept of freedom of speech try to avoid: you were working against the freedom of idea and the possibility for new ideas to find their public.

> I have big issues with forcing (vs being made uncomfortable by other people's free speech) to move on, but someone's right to say something doesn't trump my right to tell them they are wrong.

And inversely, right? right?

I think this is the point: "How does free speech infringe on free speech, exactly?" Exactly like that.
And who exactly should be the authority of what "truth" and "proof" is? The government?
Recommendation is an established concept when it comes to vaccines. When you travel to country X then it's recommended to get vaccines for A, B, C. Or when you have age N and gender G you are recommended to get vaccines D, E, F. And so on. In many instances, whether your insurance pays or not depends on whether the vaccine is recommended for you by official authorities. At least in Germany, a doctor if they deem it useful for your health is still authorized to order the vaccine and put it into your arm, but you have to pay the bill for that. Sometimes insurances also pay for non-recommended vaccinations.

The same goes for therapies for diseases. Each disease has a list of therapies/drugs available that are officially recommended by authorities, and usually what insurances pay for is based on that, but exceptions exist (in both directions).
Notably, only MySQL support for now:

"Amazon RDS Blue/Green Deployments is available today on Amazon Aurora with MySQL Compatibility 5.6 or higher, Amazon RDS for MySQL major version 5.6 or higher, and Amazon RDS for MariaDB 10.2 and higher in all AWS commercial Regions, excluding China, and AWS GovCloud Regions."
You can get really far with database views (decorating data, especially), functions (all sorts of biz logic) and Postgres roles for RBAC. But I hear you on integrating with 3rd party APIs, etc. Fwiw, there's a number of PostgREST backend client libraries to help with that.
A lot of people confuse HATEOAS, the idea, with HAL, some attempt to standardize it.

And society shouldn't be deprived the coordination that free speech allows because people can't handle that.

The core problem is critical thinking and emotional literacy education at large, not a need to curtail free speech to avoid offense.

That inevitably leads to the truth being banned. Nobody, and least of all a government, should be trusted to decide what is the truth.
So, to be fair, C-h isn't some crazy invention of readline (and thereby a failure of what it was "advertising") that you got used to: it is the standard key code for backspace. Just like a horizontal tab is ASCII 9 and a carriage return is ASCII 13, ASCII 8--and I realize this might make less sense as this in some sense "undoes" a thing and maybe you would never expect it to be in a file--is backspace.

Meanwhile, all Control does is convert a normal (capital) character into a control character, which is the term for the ASCII characters below 32 (aka, the space character) by essentially subtracting 64 (which is almost but not quite equivalent to masking out a bit). Notably, @ is 64, so C-@ generates ASCII 0, which is why you see ^@ printed for NUL bytes in many editors (including vim). After @, you get A-Z and then [, \, ], ^, and _.

This is why, if you want to get Escape, you can type C-[, as ESC is 27 and [ is 91. And this is also how C-G becomes that annoying bell, because G is the 7th letter of the alphabet and BEL is 7, And so, C-M is equivalent to pressing Enter, C-J is equivalent to pressing Tab... and C-H is equivalent to pressing Backspace!! Now, there is also a DEL, for the Delete key, which is which is 127. As ASCII is designed for 7-bit, that is the same as -1, so you can type it using C-?, as ? is 63 ;P.

OK, so, one might should then wonder how the hell Emacs even works, if they remapped the character code for Backspace to do something silly like Help... right?! And the answer is kind of "it doesn't", which I find amazing! There is actually a FAQ entry for Emacs "Why does the Backspace key invoke help?" and a related section from its manual on "If DEL fails to delete". (It might even be the solution you came up with isn't the ideal one, so you might want to read these.)

Fake Zuck to Congress: Thank You for Inaction on Big Tech Antitrust
HTTP. And it works fine up to a dozen entities and maybe a hundred endpoints, which will cover more use cases than people think.
Yeah, I addressed this in another comment[1]. "Most of the time" is doing a lot of work there, most is 75-80%. 20% is not negligible to me.

But as your article points it, DCA is not about getting the absolute best return, it's about risk mitigation.

> The only times when DCA beats LS is when the market crashes (i.e. 1974, 2000, 2008, etc.). This is true because DCA buys into a falling market, and, thus, gets a lower average price than a lump sum investment would.

If you are fearful of a crash (like now, as we are in the midst of war, recession, energy shortages, coming out of a pandemic etc.) risk mitigation may be higher on your list of priorities. I also think it just lowers cognitive load for people who aren't investing for a living.

All that said, I 100% agree with DCA as the best approach for people investing out of income!

Well, it's about marketing and positioning isn't it. Veggie based diets are plausibly healthier due to higher content of fiber - and health is generally considered an admirable trait. So the marketing should not be about selling a cheap offering, but something like Coca-Cola (everyone likes it!) and celebrities enjoying the product and so on. A campaign that draws everyone to the product basically (like cigarettes in olden times). I'm not sure if you can achieve something like that today though. But at least US food industry used to be really great at selling a cheap product to the masses if they put their marketing muscle behind it :)
> Besides, there is already a huge swath of reserved identifiers in C, why do they feel the need to make an even larger chunk of names unavailable to the programmers?

The C23 change was mostly to downgrade some of the existing reserved identifiers from "reserved" to "potentially reserved". (It also added some new reserved and potentially reserved identifiers, but they seem reasonable to me.)
> This is not how medical recommendations work. It's either recommended, or it's not.

That's not how this works at all. For instance there is no recommendation for flu vaccine except for at-risk groups by the EMA, yet there is a request to achieve a 75% vaccination coverage by countries which clearly implies that people should be vaccinated for whom there is no recommendation.
Musk: Apple has threatened to withhold Twitter from its App Store, won’t say why
Agree. If you have a claim to make about nutrition, please back it up with a million person controlled study run over 60 years.
This seems like a bonkers thing to claim. You're suggesting that if someone gave you two burgers that tasted identical, one that was real meat and costs £5, and the other that was fake and costs £2, if they were other than that TOTALLY IDENTICAL (other than the fake one being better for the planet), you'd still feel the need to eat the real one? For some sense of perceived...offence?
Why? Do they mandate flu shots too? By this point everyone I know is just living their life as normal and has accepted there's a new seasonal disease. It's not the end of the world, doubly so since students tend to be young obviously.

The amount of people with multiple boosters etc. that have gotten COVID I know is also insane. The efficacy cannot be anywhere near what was claimed, or has deteriorated since for sure. I'm not just misunderstand statistics, there's just _too many_ people I know like that for that to be the case.

As an anecdotal data point though: I got COVID once a year ago and have been perfectly fine otherwise. No long term condition, nothing. Just 3 days of flu like symptoms, but worse. Without the vaccine.
I trust the guy that was able to land rocket back on earth reliably to be able to keep a very simple tech product alive.

Right now to me it looks that people in our industry desperately wants twitter to fail - otherwise it will validate Elon Musk's assessment that the laid off were just drones (in the Wodehouse sense of the word) and know that other corporations will take notice and probably do massive layoffs just for the sake of it.

Dirdiff: Efficiently compute the differences between two directories
I've spent the last year exploring different languages and ecosystems than the one I'm most comfortable in (Python) and what you said absolutely rings true. When you're picking up C#/.NET, there's this almost overwhelming amount of terminology you see getting tossed around that takes you a while to see how it all fits together.

Now that I'm exploring Go, I'm surprised at how many books/learning materials are basically surveys of the features of the language, and then it's basically - "Start building!" "Introducing Go" is just 100 pages for example.

This is not true. The Norwegians clearly state they are ok with people outside their recommendations getting the vaccine, which contradicts what your saying based off of that guidance.

Exactly this. I'm personally awful at drawing. I'm also awful at most design software. I'm really bad at bringing a concept that lives in my head into the world. I've noticed that playing with Stable Diffusion has allowed me to create things I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. It allows me to create art for projects that I otherwise would've made a lame logo for, or used some stock photography. I don't have the money to hire a skilled artist anyway, so this gives me new possibilities.
I understand the rationale of having a relatively simple filesystem specification so that it can be implemented under the constraints of embedded systems, but using a filesystem that has no journal or checksums on the cheapest and flakiest of storage devices (hi, bottom-of-the-barrel SD cards and USB memory sticks) seems a recipe for disaster in terms of data resiliency.

I use ZFS on SD cards and USB memory sticks when I am able to, and the number of checksum errors are ... not rare. Even for high-quality NVMe SSDs on (lower quality) USB-NVMe bridge controllers, corruption everywhere.
Good call, the sounds of a daisy wheel printer[0] and that of an IBM Selectric typewriter[1] would also be good entries.

I am a vegetarian who loves Black bean burgers. Apparently I can't find good ones in India. It used to be a staple one for me back in US.
> While it does feel closer in taste to beef than impossible burgers, I heavily prefer the taste of impossible burgers to beyond. Impossible burgers have a stronger umami taste and tend to add to the experience.

Interesting. I've always felt the opposite: Impossible closer to beef, Beyond much tastier.

But I haven't eaten a real burger in a couple decades.
Friends if you dont know: you can add readline support to LOTS of things, especially custom scripts and tools with a prompt by just calling the program with rlwrap.

Unfortunately, GTK 4 has removed key themes. Eventually, Firefox, Chrom(e|ium) and all actual GTK applications will migrate to GTK 4, so this is not very future-proof.

I use a variant of the emacs key theme, so I'd be happy if there were a workaround...
Note that this statement predates the emergence of immune escape variants. The CDC director was right at the time.
Totally agree that it's possible. But at some level, it may just be easier to use something else. If you're a strong Postgres DBA, I can see how you'd come down on the side of PostgREST. If you're a strong Rails dev, it would make more sense to use that.
Agreed. But doesn't it seem sometimes as though some modest improvements here & there in the stdlib would have a big payoff in making it immensely more productive ?
The courts. Settling such questions is what they're for.
Dear apparently-f'ing-everybody:

Yes, there are plenty of delicious vegetarian dishes that don't require any kind of fake meat. We know. Please shut up since this isn't what fake-meat products solve.

Fake-meat products are for when I have meat cravings, when I go to a restaurant that doesn't normally do vegetarian cuisine, and ditto cultural events like cookouts.
It's very much a thing.

I think this is the thing with (web) frameworks. Are you really going to remember that? And actually do it? And work around and build those other gnarly things for CSRF, SSRF and XSS? If you only need to serve happy-case HTTP, for sure you're better of without a framework. At least my experience without using a framework is that it's a tad annoying when you need the extras. And requires a lot deeper understanding of things as you don't abstract it away which is good for learning, but might be cumbersome for actually shipping things.
