Here is an extension for you to debug GLSL/HLSL shaders in VSCode on every platform:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=dfranx.s...

NVIDIA also has a multiplatform GPU debugging sdk. I’m sure if you look at extensions for whatever IDE you’re using, you’d find what you are looking for in under 5 minutes.

You’d be surprised how good all the tooling is now days. It also isn’t my tooling, it’s everyones. That is the key difference. With Linux, you aren’t the product. People work and maintain it for the betterment of mankind and for personal satisfaction / freedom. So people care, and they are passionate, and there is a very involved worldwide community. It is more than a paycheck to them.
Marcus Brownlee set up a vote using the Elo algorithm to compare three categories of photo from various different smart phone cameras.

I did all three tests along to the most accurate category and it appears I prefer the iPhone 14 Pro pictures the most, which differs from the overall top vote of the Pixel 6A.

Perhpas through exposure to the iPhone 14 Pro I now like their pictures more than the others.
As a well-read native speaker, I agree with all these decisions, and yet it's pretty subtle.

"Focus" is a metaphor.

"Work with" is at a considerably simpler level of English education than "collaborate".

A "dialog" was originally a literary work with people responding to each other, so it's a bit more pretentious.

Also, a dialog has a slightly more argumentative feel than a discussion - there is more of a sense of opposition.

"We had a quick discussion to make sure we were on the same page and then had lunch." Dialog would be weird here.

"We are trying to start a dialog between one side and the other."
My use case is the remarkable tablet. It doesn't have fancy calendar apps, just a pdf editor.

Plus, having a dedicated thing for a particular task is useful for some people. It helps trick your brain into recognizing that it's time to do the task because you're looking at the thing dedicated to that task.
I’ve taken several in my life and have received scores differing by as much as 20 points.

“Psychometrics is a soft science with poor replicability except IQ which is as diamond hard as physics and is reliable enough to make broad generalizations about people and explain away just about any difference in outcome.” - the HBD or whatever it’s called this week crowd.
Start a project, learn as you go, you don't have to learn everything, you don't need to.
Doesn't "CSO" come with potential for personal liability in worst-case scenarios?

It's not clear if OP volunteered/applied for this security role, or it was thrust upon them. If the company isn't wise enough to know they need a CSO, I have to think it's quite risky to jump headfirst into that pool.

I also think this advice (the comment I'm replying to) is rather misguided. OP was asking "how do I get better at security". Instructing them to say "I'm the new CSO" seems like a leap. If they knew what being CSO meant, and how to do it, they wouldn't be asking for advice here. But maybe I'm overestimating the "riskiness" of assuming responsibility for the security of BigCo data.
Sanderson sounds like an awesome guy. And I've heard great things about his books too. I should probably read some.
Just a comment for wakana. First, I feel for you, and would say hang in there. Most startups even from very successful people, don't work out. It's up to you, but you could pursue something as a hobby in the background of your life that won't drive you batty or present too much risk if it fails. If you pursue anything next time, do something focused on fun and cheap that you love and won't harm your mental health even if it doesn't work out.

Now, onto my main comment that I think many people here will disagree with.

Conventional wisdom in life is bullshit designed to make yourself look good: you only have to look at the dumb advice given to distraught men about pursuing relations to recognize that. To me, it sounds like you're trying to take the startup community's bullshit about how to grow your business way too literally.

The good sounding advice that all of the bloggers out there give (stuff like writing high-quality content and contributing to the community) is all well and good and something you should strive towards, but you're a sucker if you think that this kind of advice is designed to do anything but make the writer of that piece seem like a noble individual. Yeah, maybe if you're Mark Cuban wealthy you can fund a big marketing campaign for your startup and do things entirely above-board and fund it until it wins out, but that's not 99% of us who are bootstrapping something.

You know what smart business minded people do to grow their startup when they have 20 followers? They go out there and spend a few dollars to buy a bunch of fake followers to appear way more popular than they actually are. It's social proof and is designed to persuade people that you're legit.

How did Reddit get their start? Wasn't it a bunch of fake bullshit accounts posting nonsense?

How do all dating sites get started? They find pictures of hot people online and make a bunch of fake profiles.

If you're pursuing your business entirely honestly, well you might win some points with the big guy upstairs, but it's not a path to business success unless you get insanely lucky. It sucks, but this is the way the world works.
I'm wondering if banks are doing this. Few times I got visibly nervous because e.g. the clerk was upselling "investment funds" instead of listening, or they didn't deal with cash deposits and withdrawals (the bank branch is basically showroom for selling credit deals). Next time... a clerk approaches me straight away when I enter the branch asking "how they can help".
It needs some adoption first… no point in canning something nobody uses. It'd be too simple.
I think programmers are often dismissive of business people. Most of us could probably do marketing or managerial jobs if we were interested since we're the ones who really build the product. How hard can the business side be right?

People who are serious about business study MBAs for several years, because there's a lot to learn. You're not just going to learn it by reading some influencer blog posts.

When you're preinvestment, the best skills for entrepreneurs aren't technical, they're strategic. If you can assess a business idea like an investor you'll stop wasting time on things that are hopeless prospects to begin with. You also won't need to listen to influencers.

Steve Jobs said he was as proud of the things Apple didn't do as the things they did. They only took forward 20% of ideas IIRC, and probably canned a load of those too.

I'm working on a rapid innovation pipeline. I want to be able to brainstorm ideas, filter out the strategically weak ones, run quick tests on more promising ones, dig deeper into the target market/problem/technology that enables the idea, and move quickly. I want to do as much as possible without writing a line of code. That's the only way to keep things fast and low cost so I can carry on working in my cushy job and do this on the side. If one takes off, I'll then decide to focus on it, but by then the business model will be well validated and I'll be more certain about the potential.
Podcasts are all RSS too, lots of hidden use of RSS out there.

yes,too bad. 500$ for a book is too much. Why not re-print it...
I would start with asking the auditors what they look for. They should be able to give you at least a broad checklist. They will probably try to hack into you if it is a red team.

Your huge customers should have a security standard for vendors. It is difficult to even start integrating with them if you don't pass some kind of assessment from them. If those were waived then you must have a hot product. You can also look at the standards for your customers and use those as a basis.

How do you deliver your product? If it is web based you have technical attack vectors. Do you have a safe and sanitized software delivery pipeline? A lot of web based SaaS pull from NPM, pip, etc... all of this software should be reviewed technically.

Where and how is customer data stored and transmitted. Is it encrypted at rest and in transit? Who controls passwords, are they hashed or is the it an Oauth integration?

Do you have internal controls (firewall, audit capability, permissions, separation of concerns, employee trainings, antivirus, backup procedures, ransomware procedures, disaster recovery policy) etc...

Good Luck!
Huh this was literally 2 weeks ago I looked into this and ended up using a third-party community podman docker compose substitute. I will have another look.
>consume information in a manner that leaves the individual with control

This is both the main feature, and the biggest obstacle. The people with the money do no want the individual to have control. Thus it has always been and shall always be.

Folks are banging on Elon because they feel he's using Twitter to manipulate, but it's not like Twitter was different pre-Elon. Elon simply gave The Man a face, voice and smell.

Back in the blogosphere (I hate that word) days, a lot of RSS was floating around. It wasn't very good, as RSS implementations varied a lot. But when it was working well, it was so good. If I have a complaint about returning to RSS it would be that we will return to the days of clickbaity headlines.
Made do a tutorial on how to use the models with pygame. Would be really appreciated by lots of kids learning to make games.
I perceive Google more like a used car salesman trying to get me to buy something as quickly as possible, but I get what you're saying about ChatGPT.
Password manager password generators have a simple UI you can click to select the password format required by the form. Or just click 'generate' again and try each until one works.
I am compelled to plug "Politics and the English Language" (1946) by George Orwell. It's a short essay. You can find PDF copies for free via your favourite search engine.
It's what the linker does.
Are you implying zero information has been revealed?

We knew the US intelligence services had tweaked the elections of other countries. We didn't know US intelligence services had tweaked the last election in the US.

Given how close elections are in US, it's not hard to imagine US intelligence services made a difference.

So that's what's new.
Doing this kind of thing at the library level is generally not very useful, because security protections between things running in the same process are hard to make very strong.
A number of caveats, there are only three pictures. Although they tried to frame the shot the same for all the cameras it does move quite a bit, but not too much.

There is taking the picture, and there is processing the picture. Conceivably you could get a better overall picture if you shot raw and post-processed, it makes sense this just tests the photo that you get.
Cool, what does your list of favorite feeds look like? Please share.
I used to do weird web art back on Netscape 3 (1996). Honestly it's more surprising that browser art/music is so rarely done.

I think part of it is that the environment is inherently a state of distracted and constant navigating. The state of stillness and absorption you need for art/music is counter to the browsing state of mind.
Colonialism history aside, Thanksgiving has been my favorite holiday because no gifts are involved other than time spent together in conversation, play, and making food. I would like to enjoy Christmastime, but the taint of commercialism (think the Wheel of Time taint, not Urban Dictionary taint, but I guess that works, too) really gets in the way. We now mostly focus on gifts for the children, but even that feels forced and overdone.
It takes my daughter weeks to open all her presents from extended family because she doesn't seem to care about getting stuff, she just wants to play, and we have so much already. Admirable perspective, and inspired by her I'm more-quickly undoing my habits of acquisition (videogames being the latest to go, once it sunk in that I'm paying both money and potential time, and I don't want to spend all that time on games anymore) established in childhood.

I hope these low-light days (in the winter hemisphere, anyway) are healthy for you all, one way or another.
What about Nvidia, Apple, and Google? Those are all down. Did people lose confidence in those? The market reflects the state of the economy.
I don't want content creators to shape their content according to feedback and popularity. I want content creators who shape their content according to their interests and desires and experiences.
I'm under the impression that the ticket wasn't bought by her, but rather by another member of the group she was traveling with. The facial recognition match was supposedly then confirmed by the venue asking her for her ID.
I recommend C Programming: A Modern Approach by K.N. King http://knking.com/books/c2/index.html. My favorite part of this book is the exercises at the end of each chapter.
Screenshotting this thread as a valueable appendix to my thesis on Stockholm syndrome.
Probably you forgot the most important part. Have rich parents.
Good point. I used a 'system' as a synonym for a 'software' but you are right that it can be confusing
This is the year of the linux desktop
Except in years like 2022 when it seems harder than ever to get a job, even with a solid 10 year working history. I'm convinced it's a more competitive market than ever, and that means more rejections.

I'm being sort of picky, focused on quality over quantity of opportunities, but it doesn't mean your statement is true.
"Capitalism only works well if there is sufficient competition"

That's the valid complaint here. There's not enough competition for Audible, so they can afford to charge extortionate prices. More competition is good, so that's what Sanderson invests in. Sounds like an awesome move to me.
HN has an RSS feed by the way: https://news.ycombinator.com/rss
I got a Firefox extension that looks for rss in a page and gives you a little icon in the titlebar. Some webmasters don't even bother to put the link in their page visibly.
That makes sense. I thought I lifted the words from others, such that I didn't think I was making up any terms. Will try to scrub all terms and describe things directly.
For what it’s worth, dialects in the US tend toward word pronunciation differences and regional nomenclature differences (water fountain vs bubbler, soda vs. pop, etc…). You don’t see spelling differences. Obvious misspellings of common English words would be recognized across the dialects.
HN commenters are apparently privileged for having to move to Guatemala to get by, whereas Guatemalians are refugees when they move to the US.
I think you mean that you saw Trump's solution as more effective. It wasn't more nuanced.

Trump's solution involved a one off payoff for a supporter (Oracle), whereas the current admin is at least trying to develop a policy framework and solve the problem with less corruption and arbitrary use of power. The latter is much more work but - to bring it back to the issue - is more nuanced.
I thought it was interesting. I've never heard of some of these techniques.
Early stage investment is usually paying below-market salaries of entrepreneurs — that is, doing exactly what the government would, except the government doesn’t take a big cut of your startup.

Additionally, the government doesn’t require you to network with the right people, come from the right subculture, etc.

Do you want your “taxes” to go to the needy or the wealthy? Because in startups angel investors are capturing bigger percentages of the capital from your labor than the government.

> please allow long passwords at least 64 chars long; even 256 should pose no DoS risk whatsoever

With a very large user database, a 256 char entry field would really start to add up, wouldn't it? iirc the DB takes up that room whether it's fully used or not. Size affects not just disk but also bandwidth, memory, cpu, and has an overall effect on system performance
You are maintaining all your files in the VM though, right? I'm playing with setting up a sync from vm to host so I can do that but still use my local tools.
That was removed from Firefox in version 64

Does gumroad actually have good audio book management? Is it intending to take on position itself as an audible competitor? I'm not very familiar with Gumroad but it strikes me as a glorified shop and not a good media manager.
> A simple "proof" using logic is finding someone who worked really hard and failed (called a proof by contradiction): this is not hard, many have worked really hard and don't have much to show for it.

That "hard work" you describe is missing the component of "smart work". If people "have worked really hard and don't have much to show for it", then that is not smart work. When I used the words "hard work" it implicitly includes smart work. Otherwise the person should not be an entrepreneur. If I start digging a hole in the hope that some how I will build a castle is not smart work. Hard work, definitely but not smart work.
You don't need a full-on monopoly. All you need is for a megacorp to have enough of a stake in a group of companies that it can dictate certain policies due to the damage it could cause by tanking the share price if they don't play ball. Something like "All of you must adhere to this ban list that we will keep updated". The megacorp doesn't outright own them so there's no monopoly, but that hardly matters to the poor sod who can no longer buy food because every single food-selling outlet in his area is affected, and toeing the line.

And it wouldn't even need to be this nefarious. Like all paths to hell, it could start with a "bad people" list that becomes homogenized across the companies because one of them has special skill in this area and it's cheaper that way. Then the list starts to expand, and since all of this group of companies are linked, they all follow the same ban, use the same facial recognition etc.
The pyramid of loserdom goes all the way down, unless you're Elon Musk there is someone richer, and there's always someone poorer. Winners figure out how to make it with what they have. Losers always blame lack of resources, look at people who win the lottery, most return to the same standard of living within a few years.

Almost anyone can afford $5 a day in ads to test market.
The management in every Chinese company absolutely knows which employees are working primarily for the Party. They were not hired by accident.
I don't know. For a "few" high quality sources you can just check the sources directly. For me, the big win for RSS in the blogosphere world was you could follow a lot of sources that published pretty sporadically but sometimes had interesting things when they did publish.
> UK Government’s Plain English website:

That website has nothing to do with the government.
- Dropbox on Linux hard-locks when trying to sync some files that happily get synced on Windows and macOS

- Google Drive doesn’t even have a good client and you must resort to 3rd-party tools like OverGrive

- Spotify has had broken shortcuts for more than a year now

- Many of Linux it’s file managers still don’t support file thumbnails

- system sleep is still unreliable (one could say broken?)

- power management on laptops is atrocious without deep manual tweaking

- sound on laptop speakers is atrocious without a Pulse EQ profile

- it often still feels like a hodge-podge of different projects slapped together, which it is. Distros that try to tackle this (Elementary) receive nothing but scorn

I like running Linux, but pretending it’s even halfway as user friendly as macOS or even Windows is just deceitful, either to yourself or, even worse, to others.

Hopefully Valve’s hard push into Linux might get 3rd-party developers to improve their Linux clients, because Steam Deck users will be too big a usergroup to ignore.
so true. and luck can be a big factor in any aspect of life..
Got an ad site.
That really feels like a great solution.

Perhaps I’m muddied in semantics, but I don’t think the complaint can be “Audible exploits people.” I think it is, “someone needs to exploit the opportunity Audible has presented by charging so much.”
The panic about right wing intrusion of social media ownership keeps getting to new highs, now even predicts a come back of RSS because woke people don't want to be seen using Twitter any more... #fail #them

The Child Tax Credit Was a Little Too Subtle
Are you sure you’re referring to passkeys like passkeys.dev? The new Web standard?

It builds upon WebAuthn and physical keys but is slightly different and on track to be supported by major platforms.

Sounds like you’re referring to something like YubiKey, it’s hard to lose device associated passkeys.

How would you phish it? The challenge response mechanism contains the requesting origin so it’s berry difficult to phish it out given up to date browser.

Which the article points out, though not plainly, should be avoided.
Great work! I hope someone adds out of the box Allegro support...
Definitely possible. But it's also possible that the executives are such agents themselves, and are simply lying.
Show HN: UI for Apache Kafka v0.5 released with RBAC and serde plugins
On a practical level you probably did work/study harder, do something more special, had more resources, been luckier than the vast majority of the population; that's why you're in the position you occupy.

On a more ideological level it feels like you're looking for some sort of moral or "greater truth" behind the economics, but I'm not sure it's there. You've shared your personal beliefs and motivations, and seem to have lots of conviction to guide yourself, so why ask someone else to convince you there's a deeper cause? Just use your results to act how YOU want to impact the outcomes of others.
It's hard, but it is possible. I know several bootstrapped tech companies who have pulled it off.

A common thread is the celebration of how far they've come. One from living in a shed (with his wife) in a friends backyard. Another in an unused room of a 100 year old building.

Even with funding there are no guarantees.
It wasn't random. You went to conferences and introduced yourself to someone who gave a presentation that impacted you.
I'd add that I've noticed older people struggling with hidden UI elements. (E.g. not knowing that button X will appear if they do Y (and then not remembering if told...)).
This is already done with a new Web Standard - https://passkeys.dev
Thanks for explaining and giving context - I was totally not aware of this total block of Google in the Chinese market.

Is managing email really an unsolved problem? I mean, every email client has already way too many "organizing thingies": folders, filters, bookmarks, categories, labels, stars, flags, and archives. What value RSS brings alone except from being different and therefore having its separate tab in a client?
I dunno. What if they’re currently living in Bangladesh?
It has felt like -40 or lower with wind factored in where I am for most of the week. -45c is weather where every second you spend outside the cold air reminds you that it kills humans. Falling to above 0 temps...ok shrug. Buy a light jacket.
Keepass2 is a piece of cake. Apps on desktop and mobile, keys stored in dropbox or whatever.
It's not just rspec, any rails boot is slow. We have a pretty large project with a significant number of files and a significant number of gems, so the initial boot that loads all the constants etc is what does it.
