Ask HN: Search what you've seen on the web before
I find many, perhaps most of my searches lately are for something I've seen before - an article, blogpost, etc. Unfortunately, neither Google nor any of the other search engines I use have been particularly helpful for me lately with this. I use several browsers on several devices, so it's not as obvious as a single browser plugin, though maybe I could make that work if that's the best option. I'm willing to save things to a tool specifically if I have to, but would prefer something that slurped my history.

Does anyone have any tools they recommend for this problem?

Base on moon is simply put much more rational choice. It would be just antarctica on steroids with possible resupply and relative proximity. Colony on mars needs to be entirely self-sustaining and we don't have any working equivalent here on earth. Putting material on the surface is one thing, but to actually have the infrastructure there to survive is much harder beast.

There's obviously plenty of large vacuum chambers than can fit a door mechanism or even a small test room (the ones JPL uses to test spacecraft thermals was the first to come to mind for me, didn't know about the Plum Brook facility).

Just think about it. For example, try to build isomorphism between REST and any RPC you want.
That was a nice feature of the Atari 800. Reset button is off to the side away from the keyboard. With little plastic risers / borders above and below it to further reduce the chance of accidentally hitting it. Even though I was a very clumsy kid, I don't think I ever inadvertently reset it. Which means it worked well in my sample size of 1.
One sort of annoying thing about this site is that it seems to be convention to ask for sources, but conversations quickly fall off the front page and so when you come back with the sources, nobody is left to respond! But this looks at least to me to be some good stuff, the second link appears to be at least somewhat of a replication.
At the same time, most crud apps need auth and a whole lot of other considerations.

It is implying that adding odd mysteries to the documentation would engage the readers curiosity and make them read it more carefully than they otherwise would With the trick being that the odd structure may not be solvable and it's only reason for inclusion was to make the reader take interest.

The enlightenment comes when you spot the trick and realized you now know more about an otherwise boring subject than you would have had you only skimmed the manual.

I am a college sophomore studying cybersecurity with several years of practical experience in software reverse engineering, malware analysis and the automation of binary analysis tasks. I am also familiar with computer forensics tools such as Volatility. Some of my past projects include reverse engineering, fixing and updating legacy scanner drivers [1] as well as writing deobfuscators to handle software in various languages. While I was in high school, I uncovered and reported vulnerabilities in various ed-tech software packages.

I am looking for an internship in the cybersecurity field, ideally in a role that involves software reverse engineering. I'm open to other roles as well, including penetration testing work. If you think we'd be a good match, please do reach out!

This is a new thought for me. What resources would you suggest to help me better understand how "register architecture" better supports modelling data as graphs?

Oh, I think I misread your comment above, sorry.
It must be fun (and also profitable) to design a microcomputer back in the 80s. You can feel the love poured into even a copycat product. The early gaming consoles too I guess. Nowadays only a few companies can afford that pleasure. I wish modern 8/16-bit machines could bring back the homebrew glory but apparently they are still quite niche.

I'm going to add that I don't think Rpi is a good substitution for 8/16 bit machines. It's difficult to go to the bottom of things (except for Pico) and when you do go to the bottom it is too complicated to wrap your head around it. 8/16-bit machines such as NES/Apple/SNES/8086 are easier to "digest". I read on HN that some good console programmers can map the whole memory into his brain.

Resource constraint is really a boon, not a curse.
I did enjoy that novel, like pretty much anything by Waugh.

I'm australian, not british, and like the people in the article have been in the US, and the other countries I've lived in, pretty much by accident.
It reminds me of a couple of books: First Steps with your BBC Micro and Second Steps with your BBC Micro.

They are filled with cartoons and jokes.
The real question there is whether you could still have hit upon the solution without thinking about it privately first.
> The vast majority of beginners can just learn "& means any number of readers and no writers, &mut means one writer and no readers".

But 'beginning' is never the hard part of learning any programming language, at least for a programmer. The hard part is going from having learned the basics to getting stuff done. Rust is harder than any other mainstream language to do that in. The writers in that thread can't even describe their mental model (NOT the underlying tech as you claim) of lifetimes without vast elliptical descriptions. And they can't point to any straightforward documentation.

I have learned multiple programming languages, of many different paradigms, and never had the trouble getting to the stage of writing useful software that I have had with Rust. I've witnessed the same again and again with all the people I know - all professional programmers. In fact I'm the only one I know who's stayed with it.

I find the denial of Rust's difficulty (and not even centred on the borrow checker - it's the use of just about every commmon library) just very very strange. Odd enough (and distant enough from the obvious, adn the experience of every person I've known) that I find it completely incomprehensible.
I'm in a similar position. I joined a new company and I learned that the culture doesn't work for me ~1 year in. I also recently realized that I want take a shot at the management track and returning to my previous employer would fast track me there compared to the current arrangement. However I'm concerned that hiring managers will look poorly at that for future endeavors.
Here's a slightly different use case. I want something that can index all open tabs in the browser so that I do not have to leave hundreds of tabs open.
You can buy industrial computers that are basically a Pentium-based PC in SoC form, they're quite popular for retro gaming. Still compatible with the original 8086 ISA.

Modern x86-64 though is quite different, and knowing the 8086 ISA won't help you with following a modern assembly listing. The course material you've found is probably just really old.

I was curious, and found the ingredients for a 1992 bar of zest from an eBay photo. It was a mix of soap with the detergent sodium cocoglyceryl ether sulfonate. The current recipe is all soap but they added a couple of chelating agents: Pentasodium Pentetate, and Tetrasodium Etidronate. The problem with the new recipe is these chelating agents suck. The only thing that can jail Mg/Ca2+ faster than soap scum forms is sodium triphosphate, but that is no longer allowed and doesn’t belong in bar soap. It makes no sense that they changed the recipe.

Detergent products have gotten so bad that I have started mixing my own. I add STP to laundry and dishwasher powder and I never rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. They come out sparkling. The whole phosphate thing is overblown. Phosphates promote algae growth, but the algae also breaks down loads of other contaminants. The problem can be mitigated with a simple fountain in the discharge pond.

Removal of STP from everything is great for plumbers as pipes are now all lined with sticky soap scum which means periodic snaking.
In the last 12 months, I have met half a dozen people because of my public work. They just reached out by email and we had drinks. I still see most of them.

On the other hand, I don’t like the information asymmetry, especially with regards to hostile, anonymous people. If you’re on the business end of the internet hate machine, you don’t want to give them any ammo.

In meatspace, the possibility of getting punched in the face keeps everyone in check. The internet has no such moderation mechanism. It makes it hard to be open and genuine, because people can come at you with disproportionate hostility and face no consequences. Criticism is often harsh and pointlessly mean.
They tried this in NZ too; it did nothing. Canada - Like New Zealand, and like Australia - relies on simply increasing the population through mass migration to "grow" the economy. This benefits enough powerful people that it will never stop for the sake of mere renters.
Absolutely, I support E2E and signatures. It's funny that there is nothing new since GPG, it is decentralized identity with E2E encryption and verifiable signatures. But original poster was questioning the delivery mechanism. Given that there is no E2E, it already works as efficiently as it can with pub/sub.

I don't want to start discussing what Fediverse should be, but I have had this discussion in past, few points:

- ActivityPub has two signatures: HTTP signatures, which are ephemeral, and more persistent JSON-LD object signatures. They are contentious. Some servers disable JSON-LD object signatures, because they allow to proof cryptographically that someone posted something, thus deleted posts become "liability".

- E2E encryption will have similar ramifications, because not all servers agree that crypto be used.

Currently only way to do "privacy" is to deliver messages to just the people you want, and hope servers won't send them to third parties, like in email. That's what Mastodon does.
In Canada, the vast majority of rich foreigners buying property are American. Chinese investors, the favourite villain of the "rich foreigners" class, make up only about 4% of foreign real estate investment.
That money would mainly be going to the kernel, not the desktop applications.
Like I said in my previous post...

There is a middle man, a foreigner who is not from this area, who is paying the locals little money, through coercion, dishonesty, taking advantage of kindness etc.

He is also paying locals off to convince other locals, mostly elderly people to sell their places at a fairly low price, they're elderly and mostly just kind people who don't think about what's going on. They lie and tell them stories about why they need the property over others with less money.

This sounds bad too, but there is a mentality with the locals that foreign people are nice, special, and they try to help them...I don't quite understand it but it exists.

There is one other very important and interesting dynamic at play here which is this: Local people, are ashamed to leave the community, like they're letting the place down. Sometimes though, they know it would be best / easier if they left to be closer to hospitals etc. These people doing the property deals know this and they offer them confidentiality. Like, "if you come to me, and sell to me directly, I won't tell anyone anything". While this in itself sounds like almost a good service, it has one significant drawback for the seller, there is zero transparency on how much money they "could" be getting.

Didn't you benefit from the taxes their windfall transaction generated?

I'd say not really enough to matter, it's a once off payment, and honestly, what I think they're doing is, the "middle man" buys the house at say $50,000 USD, then sells it for the same, but they do the rest of the transaction off shore using "gift money" or other schemes to avoid the taxes.

Honestly it's a total racket, the "middle man" is your classic rich guy type, lives here with security, priceless paintings, smokes cigars and drinks expensive whiskey, it's quite hilarious how much of a stereotype he is. I actually don't hate the person, I actually speak with him, he has told me he has had his life threatened before because of his work. People around here often joke about accidentally running the dude over.

Nice job I guess?

I will say that in a lot of cases, the local government could be doing more, so maybe that's why people say there's no point in blaming foreigners, but if they do implement something, apparently it will be "side stepped" according to 99% of Hackernewsers.

> Not sure why you think the serialists didn’t do musical experiments.

The serialists by and large were experimentalists. And there was a subset of those serialist experimenters who acted like "mean girls" to non-serialist composers and tried to exclude them from concert series, university positions, etc.

Adams here is almost certainly reacting to that "mean girls" aspect of the mid-20th century serialists. It's hard not to see him calling music "communication" as a way of getting as far away as he can from the "laboratory" ethos of serialism.

Part of that laboratory ethos came from the pragmatic (and IMO understandable) push by composers like Babbitt and Boulez to reframe composition as a form of academic research. AFAICT this was done to streamline a way of getting grants for high modernist music composition and performance in the postwar period. IIRC Babbitt even talked about securing funds by appealing to the cold war anxieties-- something like "beating the Russians" at serialism. :)

I think Adams is reacting to all of the problems that flowed downstream as a consequence of hard coupling music with research in order to fund it. E.g., perhaps this made it easier to fund for the piece that iterates through an array of pitch class sets in a novel way-- iteration is "mathy" and math is research. Meanwhile, how do you write a grant proposal for a piece where the performer throws twenty electric toothbrushes inside a piano and then depresses the damper pedal to hear the result?

In fact, I think Adams himself was part of the solution to this problem-- by becoming part of a nice, diverse set of composers who worked across the most prestigious institutions to help select a diverse set of younger composers for funding. In this way, "research" just ends up being a placeholder for "the time and money that composers need to write music," spot-checked by the established composers who can vouch that, yes, throwing electric toothbrushes into a piano is indeed a musical endeavor. So toothbrush guy is in, and-- since there's nearly no money in any of this-- nobody gets outraged on social media that these socialist antifa composers are stealing tax dollars to game the system. :)
In Finland we have slot machines in all grocery stores and kiosks. During corona their usage got very low, which caused a big budget issue on arts and sports clubs since they relied on this income. It was all over the news on how bad it was that most people were no longer gambling.
I think if people were more open to it culturally it would be used a lot more. I know plenty of my elderly relatives who would benefit switching from opioids to this for their chronic pain, but they grew up being fed lies about the drug that precludes them ever experimenting.

Socially its also not up to the level of alcohol is even in California. Every work event I have for instance has a selection of beers and wines and hard kombucha for us, but never any weed even if its legal for all of us, a few of us do use it, and our company does not care that we do it or not. One can argue "well a whole joint is a lot for most people" but I counter with the fact that you do not need to necessarily imbibe to the point of total impairment just like how you would not polish an entire bottle of scotch at the work event. They even sell seltzers with just a touch of thc in them these days, that would certainly be healthier than a white claw.
I think the problem is its public for way longer than people are used to, its like Snowden said, a permanent record.

You could've tweeted something 10 years ago with an anonymous account, and called it a day.

Yet, after more than a decade it can crash your life because you got caught by stylometry analysis.

This certainly applies to HN even more.
I rarely say something this direct and flamey on HN, but truth be told you sound like like you lack the necessity competencies for anyone to take your outsized rant even remotely seriously. This doesn’t deserve to be an “open letter” or whatever this is. It’s a complaint from a hot-headed customer’s customer that should seek clarity and shared understanding. before flying off the handle and assuming malice or incompetence.
Sure, it has a history. Any use that is described as incorrect has a history, else it wouldn't come up. Is it distracting? Is there another word that perfectly replaces it, is understood by practically all English speakers, and that's not distracting? Yes and yes, so: "to be composed of" should be preferred. I further doubt, very much, that the choice to substitute "to be comprised of" is an informed one in very nearly all cases—its presence is a "smell", if you will, which does mean it conveys some information, but most of the time that information is not something that the person using it is trying to express, which makes it a mistake.

I care less about this one than others, though, since there's little risk of this replacing the ordinary use of the word and making the language less expressive (as in the case of "envious" vs "jealous"). "Avoid doing this" remains good advice, but it's not so bad as errors go. I mainly brought it up as an example of incorrect use surpassing correct use.

It's in a similar class to using "X and I" where it should be "X and me". It causes little harm, most of the time, as far as hindering communication, but getting it right is still preferable to getting it wrong, which means that any decent guide will classify it as a mistake, unless (as is always the case) one means to commit the error, for some reason. That's the case despite the incorrect-I error having, I'm sure, a longer and more widespread history than "to be comprised of"—the history doesn't save it from being something to avoid. Maybe some day it will.
For another example of a manual that employs humor, check out the Tigerfibel. This is the users manual for the Tiger tank, and is easily one of the most effectively designed books ever. As well as humor, it employs comic book style drawings next to photos, poetry, analogy and even a bit of nudity.

The third magic: A meditation on history, science, and AI
Suppose I’m in the position of the person in comment I replied to above: I look out of my window and see some empty apartments. Some time later, I write on hacker news that they were not for sale but held by foreigners as investments. Are you suggesting that, between these two steps, I would conveyance the sale of one of those apartments and thereby determine that it was bought as an investment property by a foreigner? I’m sure that’s not what you mean but I don’t get what you are suggesting?
What the hell is isomorphism, I'm a dum dum
That’s extremely interesting, I would argue that the reason for keeping tabs open varies, but is something along the lines of: re-reaching the page in the tab is too slow
Sounds like the actual problem is people buying homes and leaving them empty.

Foreigners are just a correlate.

Going after foreigners for this is like banning men from all bars in Canada because of the high correlation between date-rape drug usage and being a man.
Is it worse than "Konqueror" or "Krusader"? Regardless, I don't see what's so bad about "Dolphin," it seems just as good as Nautilus, Nemo, Thunar, Finder, Midnight Commander, Caja, Ranger,...
Reminds me of the saying "If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together." But an important corollary is that you should be very selective about who you travel with. In some cases, like a corporate setting where you have no control over the randos you are thrown together with, it can indeed be the least painful option to go it alone. The alternative is knowing that if everyone does their best you can all aspire to be ... mediocre.
Naturally it's colder. Soap bubbles are short lived because they evaporate away. The evaporation causes the chilling. Basic physics.

Some of these articles are unnecessary and meaningless; along the lines of "Did you know that water wets things?"
Sydney's metropolitan area is already oversized. People are already regularly commuting for well over an hour to the city center on congested public transport, or driving on congested roadways. I don't think Melbourne is much different Where would we put 25,000 new homes today?
What do you think about a rebrand? How about jRPC?
You can’t prevent yourself from speaking in your sleep. That’s how they get you.
