All the pointing-and-laughing derision on the podcast seemed pretty toxic, tbh. Rather than all the "oh look how stupid Matrix are" schtick, it might have been even more interesting and informative (and less obnoxious) to get the other viewpoint and understand why we don't consider server-controlled group membership to be catastrophic in practice... as per my explanations elsewhere on the thread.

Honestly, this whole thing shows the infosec community at its worst: optimising for sensationalism/drama/press-coverage over constructive criticism and research. And it's particularly grating when the target is a mission-driven non-profit FOSS project, rather than a bungling megacorp vendor or whatever. Meanwhile things like OpenSSL RCEs or even Signal RCEs like https://thehackerblog.com/i-too-like-to-live-dangerously-acc... fly past without the researchers doing the podcast circuit(!)

World hunger is a logistical problem in a high corruption system. It’s easy to find enough calories for everyone, it’s hard to get them there if only 10% goes where intended

> I have not found single program so far that conforms only to this RFC and nothing else.

Wouldn't that be impossible, given that parsers have to accept all kind of bizarro CSV flavors? Maybe more importantly, do you know of a single program or single CSV library that doesn't support reading or writing CSV as defined by the RFC?
You're talking to an HN user with a hobbyhorse about authenticated encryption being, at least sometimes, a bad thing; they reached this opinion after being pressed on the weaknesses of PGP's authenticator.

There's no actual debate here: the authors of the paper call the attack they're referring to out as a design flaw, but not an exploitable weakness. Presumably, the Matrix team will fix this as soon as it's tractable; I don't think any involved cryptography engineer is sticking up for the design.
As someone who has a close relative diagnosed with this disease, I'm always on the lookout for new information. So this is interesting.

One area I'm particularly interested in is the correlation to diabetes. It's a factor that I found being mentioned here and there in some references. In the immediate case that interests me, there's a 20+ year history of type 2 diabetes and a recent scan showed severe bilateral hypocampal atrophy. When googling for a link between the two I found this:
"Lower insulin secretion was significantly associated with HPGA (hippocampal and parahippocampal gyrus atrophy) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The results of this study support the hypothesis that insulin‐signaling abnormalities are involved in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease."
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8504906/

Yet, the mechanism of this, if indeed there's causality (not just correlation) does not seem to be known.
This is the classic answer to the classic question about anarchy:

"who will do the unpleasant, demeaning work?"

"We only think it's unpleasant because we make it unpleasant. We can have clean, well lit factories. We just have to prioritize making that work more pleasant."
That's interesting. He "got what he asked for", eh? How was the feedback delivered? Did you guys give him neutral feedback without applying judgement to how he was acting? I'm guessing not. Sometimes people are asking for something other than what their literal words mean. (I'm not saying you and/or the group did anything wrong, just wondering how it all went down, guessing it wasn't the most generous delivery haha)

I've known people who have been interpreted exactly that way -- they seem "fake" in their positivity, when in fact they are just naive or clueless about how an endless barrage of overly-kind sentiments will be taken. I've watched it unfold over years, and see people continuously (and incorrectly) interpret this person as "just trying to get people to like [them]". Also, this is a not-uncommon criticism of autistic people - many get the feedback that they seem totally insincere and even sarcastic when they are being totally genuine. Another thing I've seen play out tons of times.

He honestly probably shouldn't have even asked for such personal feedback, because that wasn't really the environment to ask such a personal and potentially-risky question, but further, I wouldn't have even answered him (though I can't tell without having been there and seen the whole day unfold, etc.) ...

You can definitely be honest with someone without it being an attack, but it can be an art form. It can be really hard to share feedback with sensitive people who are extremely prone to taking things personally. IMO if you don't feel you have expert-level abilities here, don't even bother engaging with a person like that in that way, it's just going to end badly. There's a reason I'm super sincere and frank with some coworkers, and gloss over (or straight-up avoid) that stuff with others. I have a sense of who can approach it with maturity and who won't. With some people, it's basically a "trap", even if they don't consciously intend to be that way. Everyone has had their own journey up to the point you meet them, and sometimes that journey has been perilous and full of harm to their psyche.
My wife and I had our second baby in October. I'm on paternity leave to help out. My wife is currently very sleep deprived due to breastfeeding at night, and she is also prone to anxiety from messy spaces. Our first child can tear up the house pretty quickly. A couple days ago, my wife was saying that she _felt_ like I wasn't helping out, even though the rational portion of her mind knows that I am.

We just got our house exterior painted. Yesterday she insisted on helping out with some of the "handyman" work, and learned how to wire up some light fixtures.
Tesla is a sham of a company. Not only the self driving stuff, but he's also building up his company to be like a giant, faceless tech company with customer support. Last week I was about to accept delivery of a Model S Plaid, I was on hold for an hour and 10 minutes with sales to even reach anyone, after hours of trying to find a number. I walked into the Porsche dealership and they pretty much were ready to bring out babes in bikini's and give me scotch. I know alot of people dislike Tesla due to their CEO, but the actual company is a giant fuckup and it's like talking to a faceless human.

In the mercede's dealership? They all drive mercede's, in the Honda dealership, they drive honda's. In the Tesla dealership? They drive super cheap, shitty cars, since they're effectively minimum, wage employees.

Yes, I believe I did read the correct comment that they replied to. However, here, it is not always possible to be 100% certain to whom or from whom one is replying to or from and/or which specific comment in any given paragraph is being referenced (unless specified/re-quoted) - hence my quote and question. And I am very open to being corrected. Thank you.
My favorite route right now is running a postgres operator on Kubernetes & letting it do all the work for me.

Zalando's operator use Patroni under the hood, to create a cluster over streaming replication. It also has Spilo, which orchestrates pg_basebackup or WAL-E for point-in-time backup. https://github.com/zalando/postgres-operator#postgresql-feat...

CrunchyData operator seems to have built their own streaming replication system coordinated by Raft. https://access.crunchydata.com/documentation/postgres-operat...

Both are fantastically featureful well-integrated operators that are super well maintained. Both are very recommendable.
Clean code is not always easy to achieve, but it is worth the effort. It can make your code easier to read, maintain, and update, and it can help you avoid errors. If you are looking to improve your coding skills, consider reading the following tips.
It is quite common among US businesses that are not large enough to afford a dedicated IT department and do not want to spend too much on a MSP. Not the kind of company that would be offering this kind of job, for sure.
I’m not opposed to a different browser experience but I found Arc to look and feel pretty shotty. I saw no reasons to move from chrome which works great for me
This discussion about the cause of Alzheimer's is not new, it has been going on for something like 10-15 years at least. What is triggering the publicity now is that two drugs targeting amyloid failed to produce real improvement even though they were effective at reducing amyloid. Especially the newer one produced very large and measurable reduction of amyloid, but only very small (but measurable) cognitive improvement.

In any case the whole amyloid system is involved somehow, I think that much is very likely. Just not in the way that the visible amyloid fibers are the cause, but might just be another symptom. This is not anything like heretical talk, this suspicion was pretty much mainstream when I studied biochemistry ~15 years ago. It was only a hypothesis, but it certainly wasn't suppressed.
Except victims of this kind of trauma usually become hyper sexual...
That’s why, as we strive towards the morally necessary system of universal unemployment (with robots doing all the work) we will need for the robots to create jobs for those who want them (and to convince the job holders of the importance of these ”jobs“).

I mean this in all seriousness and am only sorry that I’m unkikely to live long enough to enjoy this paradise. Of course I’m one of those who loves to work.
I didn't, either. From what I can tell, they have a fairly light touch with their acquired companies (Zappos, Goodreads, IMDb). At least at first.
We find ourselves living in a vetocracy, where very little groundbreaking work actually gets done. Critics rule the roost at this current cultural moment. So there's a lot of pent-up energy that will be rewarded to anyone able to articulate a concrete positive vision for the future. Of course people are going to bow down and worship the one guy actually making progress against all odds. The only other person might be Zuck with his metaverse bet, but although he has the concrete positive vision, unlike Musk he hasn't delivered (yet). Anyone have other examples?
This means however that you should store the original email and not just lower case it on insert. Imagine if you could reset password for Jane.Doe@example.com by registering the jane.doe@example.com address (assuming example.com does differentiate between the two) and requesting password reset for that.
How would changes not have been required in the ISPs? An IPv4 router wouldn't know what to do with a 4.4 packet. At best, it'd route it to the wrong place - 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8 and 5.6.7.8 are totally different hosts that may well not even be on the same continent.

Additionally, the only reason so much code had to change for ipv6 is that Berkley sockets is a terrible, terrible API that has abstractions so leaky they might as well not exist. Sure, in other APIs (what few exist) low-level code had to be rewritten somewhat, but that's going to be true for any protocol change, because that's kinda what change means.
Yeah. I got into the beta and fortunately have a Mac device to run it on. Just tempering expectations.
Not sure what your point is? It's okay to be white (or any other ethnicity), and it's okay to be queer - no matter how many people would tell you otherwise. That doesn't mean you have to take either of these and make it the be-all and end-all of your identity. The difference should be obvious - it was surely obvious enough to PG.
Pretty sure last bubble gum I bought was made in SA. I remember because it was a while ago and it was the sole reason I got them in the first place. Got curious. There is plenty of near eastern stuff around, if one looks, but that one felt rare enough to me. I am not even a collector of any kind.
You're right. It's not the car or Tesla.

It's Musk
I know people who drank a lot. [In the end], I never really cared to point out that diet decision and they should manage their own health (though was always interested in some co-workers with a conspicuously large amount of empty Pepsi Max bottles near their desk ... :D ). I am just talking about personal experience. The colorful language is just my own personal reaction to something that I have come to not like. But I am not going to think too much with other people's rationalizations. (Even though I made some reference to that. I am not going to overthink that one.)
The soviets also had the problem that they were an autocracy who had little regard for the conditions of their people.

They were also huge. Community level programs like this can be much more functionally democratic and uplifting.

> I think another post alluded to this but if Tesla gets in trouble the cars will likely be bricked right?

I strongly doubt millions of cars will be left bricked to be towed to the junkyard.
That interview was a load of bullshit to justify the decision to stick with cameras.

The only reason why they picked cameras is because they are cheap, and they can put them in vehicles now, and promise they will be self-driving in the future.

Tesla saw that there is a huge demand for self-driving vehicles, so they decided to sell them, even though they don't have them. I wouldn't call that "earnest".
You know, my decisions on things are mostly based on the product...

But if I know I'm going to enrich someone that I find completely obnoxious, it gives me pause. (Of course, dealing with an organization helmed by someone obnoxious tends to have its own costs: they tend not to be super laser-focused on the customer experience).

Ordinary political disagreement isn't enough to do this for me. But seemingly systemic wanton disregard for others gets me to the point that it's a lot harder for me to justify buying that product.

There's a pizza place in my town co-owned by a notorious jerk. They have pretty good pizza. I still don't go there anymore (even though he is generally not there and the risk of running into him is low).
Do they? You must be using some pretty terrible mobile text editors...
Thanks for the tip! (Not for jpegXL specifically, but ill definitely check that out and update some code where i use dataURLs instead of objectURLs accordingly)
Yeah, but they got steadily easier as time progressed. I remember when people started complaining that games were "too easy" after that, because RPGs went from games like Ultima or Wizardry where you might have to keep your own detailed maps and notes, to having the game do almost all of that for you, giving you waypoints, quest journals, etc.
Do not do this. Your website will become very slow. Wasm does not have the hardware acceleration necessary to efficiently do codecs.
Run Yugabyte maybe
There is a spec (RFC 4180 [1]) but it's definitely not widely followed. Worse, for a lot of data there's no problems for potentially years, until your numbers get too big or the first time a quote or comma gets in the data.

In my experience one of the biggest barriers I run into -- and the primary reason I hate using CSV -- is Microsoft Excel. It misinterprets numbers as dates, it convers big numeric identifiers to exponents, and more. Even merely opening a RFC4180-compliant file and saving it changes the data, and even Excel itself will often have a different misinterpretation of the de file.

If humans never used Excel for CSV, it would be a viable format. At the same time in most cases where humans aren't in the loop (machine-to-machine communications), there's better formats. You could spec "RFC4180 CSV" and hope no developer just sees the "CSV" and assumes they understand. Or specify something like a JSON streaming format and avoid a whole lot of headache.

I love the BBT show, well the early seasons more than the later ones, but still it's an amazing feat to featured in a world-wide blockbuster loved by geeks :-)

ps. Most pharmacy university students were closely familiar with the show, there was an abundance of references during classes.
So, we can easily say that there is a good chance that at least 7% of the vice presidency of Europe is corrupt...
Elon Musk’s Impossible Electric Truck Is Getting the Last Laugh
One idea I've toyed with is that unemployment is actually a societal refusal to help eachother. Yes we all need sustenance, but consider something like this

If I'm laid off I can choose to still program. If I don't my time might simply be wasted (eg on videogames, netflix, or even job applications). But I can also choose to continue to program. Maybe by helping local businesses, contributing to FOSS etc. While I understand the near impossibility of it all, but we actually could continue to have lots of good things so long as folks refuse to stop working even if told they're no longer employed.

Obviously this fails the moment some unit in the chain refuses to participate, but I think in small ways it can actually blunt the pain felt in recessions/depressions by creating small communes of collusion amongst your social circle. You collude together to ensure that eachother gets what they need, at least amongst the valuable skills in the circle.
I don't understand how tampering with a gas station pump like this can currently be legal. It's not much different from exchanging price stickers in a store; it's pure theft.
Not only.

I have no idea on what the project details are, but - generally speaking and if possible - building an open-cut tunnel (as opposed to bored) is much cheaper (like 1/3 of the cost) and much faster (also because the works are not sequential and can thus be carried on easily in multiple stretches at the same time, given enough equipment and workers ).
The OP presents a rotten political environment through which by definition anyone part of that environment, comes out also rotten, essentially attributing her actions to that political environment. I just say that this specific person was not 100% part of the environment, at least during the time periods presented in the OP's comment.

Why? Most pages are static text and images, most pages don't need JS. So why should JS be always enabled?
My local mall has a Maserati dealership, among lesser brands, a couple floors up, and the tax on this kind of car is about 300% AFAIK.

I’ve long imagined someone walking in, handing over $300K or whatever in cash, and driving it out the secret car exit on the third floor.

The mall downtown has Rolls Royce, I assume you can drive that right down the escalator if you want.
I have a great tolerance for people taking risks with their own life, oddly less tolerance for people misunderstandings the risks, and minimal tolerance for people putting others at risk.

Which is why I don’t object to people driving motorcycles at those speeds rather than cars. It greatly increases someones personal risks while slightly reducing the risk to others, which is a fine tradeoff. My only request is people take a closer risk assessment rather than blindly thinking they are meaningfully safer drivers than others when taking such risks is already putting them below average.
The first thing I found incredulous about that story was how she could convince people she was so much younger. Lately I got back into reading Travis McGee stories by John McDonald and a constant theme in that is the very fine differences that the author describes even between a 27 year old and a 33 year old.

On the other hand somebody with a very well developed ‘false self’ can paint on signfiers like that cat ear headband and cast a spell on someone and when it comes to a mass delusion the more people you deceive the better it works… that is how a stage hypnotist can accomplish things with a group in front of a larger group they might not be able to do in private.
How hard is it to obtain aerial photos of something? Surely, a $300 drone plane can take photos of things tens of km away undetected?
How do they pay for food, housing, and healthcare in this model?

A family member who is retired performs volunteer work (adjacent industry to what they did while employed) because their Social Security comfortably covers all of their expenses (and Medicare covers their healthcare). Without these age tested basic income and benefits (and me providing no cost housing), this would not be an option. They would be toiling in a bullshit job.
I am genuinely convinced Tesla is better off when Musk is focusing on something else instead of managing it.

Tesla need Musks public charizma, his money, his connections and him bullying everyone who stands in a way. Sure, especially his ability to convince public about dreams is super key aspect. But, his management style and the way he runs things seems to be something company needs to protect itself from.
NC Treasurer calls for BlackRock CEO Fink to resign over excessive focus on ESG
The article does in fact mention this event in the below paragraph:

"The hypothesis took another hit last July when a bombshell article in Science revealed that data in the influential 2006 Nature paper linking amyloid plaques to cognitive symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease may have been fabricated. The connection claimed by the paper had convinced many researchers to keep pursuing amyloid theories at the time. For many of them, the new exposé created a “big dent” in the amyloid theory, Patira said."
I am not diagnosing anybody with anything, I am merely commenting what I am seeing.
I don't think there are major technical issues.

The issue is the scale, which requires a construction effort probably spanning decades.

So if they really do start building it they'll likely start from one end and build it section by section until either it's complete or they give up. Even 1km out of the 170 will result in a very large building.
In the case of masterson it is a sexually specific crime. A sexual abuse victim would not be disqualified from serving on a jury for, say, bank robbery or embezzling.

The main issue is that if happens to you it makes a wound that doesn’t ever heal and you are very inclined to want to pass your trauma forward to somebody…. If you knew that person crossing the road in front of you was a molestor you might think about not applying the brake…
Anyone with even that kind of "trivial influence" can be absolutely sure than an "agency" is constantly tracking them.

I wouldn't be surprised if AI conferences have a minimum of 10 spooks from every major western intelligence agency in attendence.
- easier maintainance, since you can clean panels with a roomba-like rover instead of walking down with a hose. Replacements don't require ladders and cranes, since panels can be smaller without requiring more support

-more heat may be irrelevant and anyway it's speculative

-no plants growing under them to constantly be trimming

-most places are not flood plains
Also perhaps the least dignified work should be the highest paid? Unfortunately America has a sort of wealth cult going on that we dignify (and deify) those who are already wealthy.
The name itself is not a lie. You can call it misleading, but it isn’t a lie by itself. When the CEO is obviously lying to the public and you focus on the name instead, it weakens the case for fraud in the court of public opinion.
