> "It’s not a coincidence that the quickest keyboard measured also has the shortest key travel distance by a large margin."

High-end keyboards often have user changeable key switches and there are a hundreds of different switches available, each tuned for a different mix of specified parameters including actuation depth, pressure (force) and many more. Switches made for competitive gamers are generally linear (no click), with light force and very shallow actuation depth. For example, some users love the feel and sound of clicky Cherry Blue switches but they're obviously a poor choice from a latency perspective. On my personal keyboards, I even have different switches installed on certain individual keys (Enter, Spacebar, etc) which have different actuation depth and force. Keyboard geeks and pro gamers can be very picky and precise about their preferred switches and the first step in getting serious about keyboards is swappable switches and key caps.

I appreciate the rigorous approach to testing the entire latency pathway but I think the key switch aspect of the chain is already very well specified, characterized and studied and is in the control of users who would value objective latency tests. Personally, I'd be far more interested in tests that measure the latency of the rest of the path after electrical switch actuation. Otherwise, a keyboard manufacturer may have the shortest post-actuation latency but it's invisible to these tests due to being masked by the subjective choice of a non-linear, full travel switch the manufacturer may have chosen due to a "feel" preference.

It’s just not feasible. What if, instead, we have a group of people who enforce safety standards and we can place some trust in them to help keep us all safe?

Perhaps it isn't about controlling TSMC, but control of TSMC would be a very strong leverage over the west.

Not that it is the only or even the most powerful leverage China has over the west, but it is still a massive one, and it has quite a lot of second-order effects.

Thanks for the info - it just sounds like a completely bizarre approach. Like, why even make it the same (SaaS and OSS versions)? If you're going to do SaaS ELK then why not just do that and add whatever features you need to be better than DataDog or w/e? Make the SaaS ELK better than a version anyone could even imagine self managing.

It's especially weird to me because if I was a casual user then I wouldn't even know Elastic had anything to do with Elasticsearch. You certainly wouldn't know it from their webpage. I literally see this at the top:

"Accelerate results that matter, across any cloud. Easily deploy anywhere, and extend the value of Elastic with cloud-native features."

What does this even mean? How is the marketing department not 100% of these layoffs, lol?! why is a so-called SaaS company talking to me about deploying to any cloud and what even is "Elastic" and just what problem is it solving?

This is so bad it's hilarious.

You have to scroll for awhile to even see the word "Elasticsearch" and I don't see anything about ELK anywhere.

What pathetic execution. You were smart to leave that place!

When the anecdotes all seem the go completely against the prevailing narrative ("meat is like smoking!") and there are huge numbers of them, that has got to pique your interest https://carnivore.diet/?s=cycle (try different search terms, YouTube is also a great source).

This thread is full of anecdotes so I'm just the messenger of some I know of. I don't care about science when our bodies are burning because of the terrible advice some of the "science" has been giving us.

- dietary cholesterol is good and cholesterol is not the problem, triglyceride/cholesterol ratio is

- hormones from meat... that's just not having a sense of scale, don't know how to put it, of course everything is going to have some tiny amount of hormones, even the vegans' beloved soy

(2017) post.
that would be awesome for a Vandal Hearts-inspired game
The author assumes that humans can't feel the difference between 100 and 200 ms latency, which is simply not true. When I had to move from gameport MIDI interfaces to USB ones back in the day, I could immediately feel the added latency, which was just a few milliseconds more, not a hundred or worse, but to a musical ear it was clearly noticeable. They also only measure USB and wireless devices (that is, USB and USB+wireless ones, since the dongles use USB) which of course are the main limitations wrt latency. Those keyboards can't beat for example any PS2 based 30 years old keyboard because the PS2 port was essentially an UART directly connected to the system bus, without any of the overhead a complex protocol such as USB would add.
To me very low latencies can be obtained with USB too, but that would likely require a total rewrite of the drivers and engineering keyboards to take advantage of low latency drivers just like USB music keyboards do.

Edit: please disregard any attribution to the author of the false assumptions about human latency perception; that was a citation from other sources they were also refuting. Thanks to all HNers who corrected me.
I guess assessing the answers is subjective, I've read several of her long replies and either are weak or they do no contain an answer to the question, E.g.

"In Response to "How was an unobfuscated version of the Measurement Systems SDK incorporated into MsgSafe?":

Our company never published a production or supported version of the MsgSafe mobile app containing the Measurement Systems SD [...]"

This does not answer the question. It's irrelvant if the software was published or not, the question is, how does MsgSafe get an unobfuscated version of a software where everyone else got an obfuscated version? Why does MsgSafe include the only known unobfuscated version - if they are not the primary authors?

Answers are interwined with marketing, E.g. "We have innovated and lead the market in the adoption of TLS server certificate issuance for one of the longest-running and most respected dynamic DNS services worldwide and the positive impact this move has made cannot be overstated." - which has nothing to do with the issues at hand.

About security, the most concerning answer:

(Their website right now states: "Private, end-to-end encrypted")

In Response to: "[...] Nevertheless, I think it is reasonable expectation that a root certificate authority can get the crypto right, and so I'm concern regardless of the reason why.”:

[...] As far as you not believing the product is offering adequate encryption capabilities, let me first say that I do not want to drag the names of any other encryption products or services through the mud. To address your concerns, based on our teams exhausted research into many other providers offering similar services, one basic rule applies; whether the encryption or decryption functions are occurring on the client (often in javascript) or on the server, the server is still storing and handling the key material in the process. [...] If encryption occurs on the client then the key material is passed from the server to the browser over TLS. [...] As the MsgSafe website explains, our team has found that implementing the key material and encryption/decryption processing on the server provides security without the additional processing requirement on the client."

Either this is snakeoil ("Private, end-to-end encrypted") or they don't know about what they are doing.

There are many more of those answers in the thread, but dinners ready and I can't https://xkcd.com/386/
> Anyway people never click allow on those so they might as well be useless.

They do, by accident. And then wonder why the fuck they keep getting spam push messages and how to turn it off. Which is why the right thing to do is turn them off completely for non-technical friends and family. Likelihood of harm is near-zero (as you note, basically no-one wants these) and, at the very least, it saves them from distracting, useless pop-up dialogs.
In any statically typed language I know, it is possible to create invalid values which looks correct to the type checker. E.g. if a function takes an interface as parameter type, you can create a dummy implementation which throw exceptions for any operation. So basically you have the same problem as you describe for dynamic languages.

If you are talking about untrusted external input then yes, you need to carefully validate and reject invalid input. If you receive JSON or a CSV file or whatever, there are an infinite number of valid inputs and an infinite number of invalid inputs. But this is the same for statically typed languages, and the type-checker will not help you, since a valid JSON string and an invalid JSON string look exactly same to the type checker.

> should hold schools to a higher standard than environments where violence and mental abuse unavoidably happen constantly

This seems harmfully naïve to me. In pursuing this aspiration we ignore the realities that exacerbate conflict. Children and teenagers are literally not cognitively developed enough (on average) to function to this standard. This remains true no matter how much we wish it weren't.

More effective policy comes from embracing this reality. "Violence and mental abuse" are inevitable consequences of the construction of hominid dominance hierarchies. Instead of fighting their construction, we should create environments where they can occur most naturally.
> Regulators aren't going to save consumers if consumers refuse to get educated or practice restraint

That's literally the job of regulators, see asbestos or cancer causing pesticides that have been banned or severely restricted. Do you expect all consumers to have degrees in chemistry and read papers to make risk assessments about the 10,000s of chemicals they come into contact daily?
There may be a hardest type, but it's all hard. If it was easy, they'd hire high school kids to do it, and they'd pay them minimum wage (as Steve Hanka used to say).

Different kinds are hard along different axes. Semi engineering is hard because of physics. Medical devices and avionics are hard because of safety issues, and because of regulation. Web programming is hard because of tons of fiddly human-factors issues.

A YouTube commenter opines: “Exactly like this you should treat Protestors in our time too. Fucking 0 respect should be treated with 0 respect and violence!” - which I think answers your question of who would program brutality into a Police robot.
the truth is a well known biasing factor
In the US, you aren't supposed to accept handouts and are expected to work, because work is a virtue. However, it's OK and totally virtuous for someone to give you a job, or maintain a company structure to keep a job around so a person who "needs it" can keep their job, such as positions that tend to be filled by elderly.

So structuring to give out jobs like rewards is not something exclusive to giving them to women, it happens to the elderly and politically connected all the time.

Hello, I wanna make the new DistroWatch
When I started with my Linux Journey, distrowatch was the main resource to get info about distros. But to be honest, it's old and awful (I know it was made a lot of time ago).

For me, desktop environments were a fucking headache, I didn't know where to start and why were many of them.

So, I have a live demo currently DistroBase

The main page shows the top 100 distro on the last 30 days, and you can see distro details.

I came to get feedback about what is missing on distrowatch or what feats you would wish here, out there are many novices and this site should be the strongest.

Some of my ideas:

- Live demos of desktop environments to see the differences between them (vanilla).

- Notifications updates (discord bot, etc).

Logos came out from SVGPorn

It will be open source, btw.

Yes, that's correct and then you need to tell it which driver you need for your hardware. For example like:

intel-compute-runtime # OpenCL library
intel-media-driver # video encoding/decoding hardware accerlation
];
extraPackages32 = with pkgs.pkgsi686Linux; [
intel-media-driver # video encoding/decoding hardware accerlation
];
};
I agree. They should get rid of that tagline.
