Good to have the heads up. I just bumped my KDF iterations from 100000 to 600000.

One thing that is also worth mentioning for anyone nervous about their password security is that you can use a physical security key with the paid version of Bitwarden. I need to use a yubikey to log in to any new instance of Bitwarden and it's been working well.
I work with a manager who has the inverse problem. He has multiple (2-3 out of 10) low performers but had pressure to only mark one as a low performer. Now that one person has left the team he’s able to mark a new person as the low performer.

There doesn’t seem to be any relationship between dietary fat and cancer.

There is a huge relationship between obesity and cancer.
There isn't any tip in New Zealand and Australia. Everybody get proper salary. The service is always exceptional. How is that possible?
I’ll pick some examples from the article.

> Schenker says it’s hard to sympathize with consumers who are able to afford pricey coffee drinks but complain about tipping.

How will it reflect upon tipper if they in turn judge Mr Schenker for being in this position in the first place?

> Tipping is about making sure the people who are performing that service for you are getting paid what they’re owed

This just sounds ignorant because the comment is pointing to the wrong entity - as in “who owes”. This is barking up the wrong tree. But society has enabled and allowed business establishments to create a situation like this. At the same time this is also entitled — the thought that the tipper is supposed to pay for service provider’s bills above the cost of the item purchased.

This is sad and outrageous. A person is driven to think like this. Is it society, or the culture and tradition? Or the businesses collectively doing this?

> Moore said she believes consumers shouldn’t be asked to tip nearly everywhere they go — and it shouldn’t be something that’s expected of them.

This is what I do. I leave a tip if I feel like. I exclusively do not tip if an establishment points to it, or asks me to tip. I say a simple no and that saying no is difficult but I always say no in this situation.

The last thing I want is this outrageous tipping culture, especially like USA, where I live.
There's nothing wrong with getting paid less if you don't meet performance expectations. I'm just impressed with the term they made up ("differentiated compensation") to try to make that sound nicer.
You disregard diabetes rather lightly there. Diabetes can result in amputations, blindness, heart attacks, strokes and other fun things.

Sure there are other food choices that lead to obesity, but sugar is certainly high on the list.

One thing in common though is that telling a smoker to "just quit" is about the same as telling someone who likes sugar to "just stop". Personally I'm working to "reduce my intake", slowly but surely.

Edit:but for sure there's no such thing as second-hand-sugar and that a Huge difference between the two.
You can know in the most obvious subset of cases of error, but if your score is 573 and it's supposed to be 605, good luck figuring that out.

> Is there a reason you think this isn't possible?

The methodology for the calculation of credit scores is secret. You can't go on the internet and figure out how they do it. They don't tell you, they don't publish it, you can't know. Therefore you don't have the ability to check their work.
Most people's livelihoods depend to some extent on other people's whims. I tip mechanically, and think everybody else should too: as I said, it's a cost sharing mechanism. Part of the problem I think nerds like us have with tipping is that they think it's something they have to figure out, like a Yelp star rating. No: just divide by 10 and double, end of story.

I'll go you one further and candidly tell you that what I perceive lurking in the subtext of HN's biannual tipping freakout is the frustration some nerds have that they don't get to inflict their whims on American servers, because their tips are expected to be automatic. They feel ripped off by the expectation. That's the fucked up belief, right there.

You can feel free to ask one of your server friends how degraded they feel by your tips. I think you'll be surprised.
Being rude to uninvolved strangers isn't improving anything.
There are only 39.8 billion US banknotes in circulation, it can easily tracked in a Postgres database, banknote numbers when it exits the ATM, banknote numbers when they are redeemed by the baker, or by your drug dealer of choice, banknotes are only in circulation for one or two exchanges before coming back to a bank, it’s very possible that they are tracked to identify curious loops in circulation.

In fact, if they weren’t, that would be unprofessional from the FBI.
How come? What makes coffee shop staff intrinsically more deserving of tips than those working at a fast food restaurant?

This sounds great. I'm getting fed up with prompts for tips from places where tips are not customary (non-food) but also I am not a fan of seeking feedback from customers because they may over scrutinize their interactions with service workers --though presumably it averages out over time.
Isn't that quite a lot of other-than-personnel cost for a software startup? And how many iterations do you throw away before you get one that generates income?
Going through the syntax tables:

((a,b),(c,d)) |-> ul x < 10 != y ~~ (dz)/(dt) !in RR -> oo

which is equal to:

\begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix} \mapsto \underline x \lt 10 \ne y \approx \frac{dz}{dt} \notin \mathbb{R} \to \infty

Though some may prefer TeX even in this case due to being more explicit.
You haven't seen any of the anti-cash propaganda, some of it here on HN? The interests behind that are also behind several other disturbing changes.
Its modern-day slavery -- the problem is way worse in the Middle East -- mostly construction workers and laborers -- and its not just labor from India, but other South-asian countries like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal. In America, most unskilled labor comes from Latin American countries -- jobs that really no one wants to do
FIDO® Certified what? CTAP2? Apple doesn't seem to say.
It also allows game players to simply avoid tipping entirely, thereby getting a much cheaper set of good across all of the places that take tips.

Reinvest the savings and get rich off the stupidity of the system. Belligerence seems to be the only way to fix the system.
Taken too far, it might seem that way, but an important point from the article is that:

The “judicious prospecting” mindset is worth balancing against the “really trying” mindset. There are times where both frameworks are useful, but distinguishing one from the other is a challenge...there are a multitude of scenarios where futarchy could shed light on where to best apply effort.
Sure, maybe we can collaborate. I have a collection of thoughts and capabilities.

Apparently it is based on an actual historic Paris bistro -- the Bistro Bofinger (which exists to this day, near the Place des Vosges)
I personally love tipping. When you can tell that someone actually makes a real effort to take care of the customer and do their job well, there's nothing better than being able to make their day (or at least, make it better and show your appreciation) by going above and beyond.

Most of the situations in which you tip are already signs of you not being too frugal. If you are eating in a restaurant, buying coffee out, valeting your car - you are not penny pinching so you can give someone a few extra bucks without breaking your bank.

Of course you have to be culturally sensitive. In the US tipping is expected and appreciated. Other cultures don't expect it and would think it's rude.
Tangentially related: why would a password manager provide a configurable iteration count? This is a number whose purpose is fairly hard to understand for many people and yet it’s an important corner stone for password security, especially for those who do not grasp the concept of an iteration count.

This should absolutely be application managed and gradually increased over time.

Also: while I understand that FIPS is the reason why we are stuck with PBKDF2 in the case of the more enterprisy password managers, wouldn’t it still be FIPS compliant to do some scrypt or argon rounds on top as a means of not constantly having to update the PBKDF2 iteration count (assuming that scrypt and argon are more resilient to hardware brute-forcing)?
You can indeed reason it out. That doesn't mean it's very good though.

You pretty much have to have a very specific image of a d-pad in mind. It helps that that d-pad is also the one in your hands, but you shouldn't have to look at the controller, or have its detailed look memorized, to figure it out.
Malice or not, a trend is found by data. Report it, if it's one off it's fine, if it's not it's a trend.
The 'global rise' is skewed towards parts of the world where people have started to believe that 'gender identity' is what makes someone a woman or a man (or, bizarrely, something else). It's also skewed heavily towards young women and girls.

How do we explain this? The narratives invented by those who want to guide more and more vulnerable teenagers into hormones and therapy don't really add up. This article sheds no new light, it's just a repeat of the usual trans propaganda.
Deserve's got nothing to do with it! When I shop at places that clearly establish an expectation of tipping, I tip, because I can read a straightforward social cue about the arrangements the business operates under. If I objected to tipping there, I wouldn't do business with them.
Your first paragraph is true (to the extent that nobody pretends to have your authorization).

Your second paragraph is false, AFAIK. In the USA, credit bureaus are legally allowed to sell lots of your info to debt collectors and financial service companies. (According to DoanLaw.com) this is why you get “prescreening” offers for credit cards, mortgage refis, etc.
tl;dr rant, and not an exaggeration: the amount of time I've spent skimming these (edit to be nicer) exhausting comment threads about password managers has taken 10x the amount of time it took to use a pass-compatible or age-based password manager.

Okay, here we go, let me be explicit: there's a Venn diagram I imagine in my head of two circles - first is "password managers that require a web ui and browser integration", second is "password managers written in a language and with an overall complexity that I'm comfortable with".

For certainly-informed users, there's ZERO overlap in 2023. what's super fun is that this comment would get entirely different scores in yah, every 2 years for the past decade+ now. (think abour Rust circa 2021, 2019, 2017, I feel confident saying... for well most, opinion has been shifting in a certain direction).

luckily recently there is a tool which is,

1. rust-written

2. pass, pass-totp, and pass-tomb compatible

3. hasn't yet broken the CLI UX in nearly every release like another prominent "safe-lang" re-write of pass. that's all I'll say because it turned into a many-paragraph rant otherwise.

I'm trying so hard to watch myself here, but it's just not that hard. Let's imagine what needs to break for me to compromise your WV account versus what you'd need to compromise my public-hosted git-repo-backed yubikey-hardended-gpg-encrypted pass accounts. "I'll post mine if you post yours?"
It is also awful at the civilization level.
There is a huge amount of knowledge loss occurring every generation.

Our culture and technology are evolving as they are supported by language, but this is barely enough and from the societal organization (politics) we keep collectively falling in the same traps over and over.

Humanity could do with a bit more wisdom.
Oh for sure, but that isn’t all that helpful if you’re on the receiving end of their genocidal behaviour.
Using a passphrase is the way to go. Easy to type, remember, and more secure.

They're going to charge $42 a month which is a lot. That should cover the costs easily. It will put people off from using it for personal purposes though. Where I live in Spain that's a lot of money. About half my monthly energy bill (and I'm an IT enthusiast with 24/7 servers and a 3080Ti game PC)
Remember: this is HN, where the bubble effect is strong. On Hacker News, everybody "knows" that Google Search is useless these days and that Amazon results are all counterfeit junk, even though in the real world I have never heard anyone bring this up and these services are still incredibly popular. It's the same thing with cash: I don't think I've seen anyone pay with cash in years. Even the old people at the grocery store use chip-and-PIN cards.
Congrats, you just proved you're the asshole and I was right about what a piece of shit you are for forcing your cancerous chemicals on everyone around you, and then complaining when they decided you weren't welcome around them while you were lighting up.

And the advantage of no tips is a-holes like me cant game the system for a 20% discount.
i agree that it's a bit up its own ass but chapman is definitely worth reading on his own, and his writing is in dialogue with contemporary rationalism; his audience is also mostly rat-adjacent (typically labeled or self-identified 'post-rationalist', which also sounds pretty up its own ass, but so does 'rationalism')
If my grocery store has a hot bar of to go food that is packaged by the employee and handed to me to eat on their patio or take home. Should I tip that employee? If they worked at a restaurant they would tipped. My point is the waiter chooses to take less pay in hope of a tip, while the grocery store employee would rather know what their check is going to be and have stable reliable verifiable income. Wait staff don't have that. They make $0 on paper, they take the risk to avoid taxes, while the grocery store employee pays their "fair" share of taxes and social programs. While the waitstaff complains about tips and not earning a living wage.

Complaining about a job they chose when there is a multitude of jobs that you know exactly what you're getting paid based on your hours.

All this being said I do tip. I don't mind it. I find it hilarious when they spin the iPad around around to "answer a few questions" ie "please please tip me, I'm not gonna look or judge you but I am going to look and judge you and most likely passive aggressively spell and say your name wrong to show you why you should tip better!!"
Prompt: nearest city to bali that's not in indonesia

Answer:
The nearest city to Bali that is not in Indonesia is Sumbawa, located on the neighbouring island of Lombok[1]. Other cities near Bali include Ubud, Tabanan, Klungkung, Denpasar, Kuta, Singaraja and Karangasem in Indonesia[2], as well as cities near Negara in Bali such as Mataram and Praya[3].

Yeah, that AI is bad.
If you replace "Credit Bureau" with CBDC (Central Bank Digital Coin) it would ring very true or the probable future.

So much for open.
the short answer is for wait service it's customary. this thing where you're now being asked to tip 20%+ for any product or service as long as there's a touchscreen POS terminal is the new thing everyone is getting rankled about.
Search is exactly how they are displaying ads though. Language models have the possibility to replace a very large portion of the classic search with a different interface, maybe 40%. How they are going to evolve their current business model facing this new reality is unknown.

Good on him. The real question is are Blizzard using Orc ranks or Human ranks?
It is interesting that planes are all still made with ashtrays in the bathrooms. I believe the reasoning is something like: "You are not allowed to smoke, but if you do smoke, we don't want you starting a trash fire."
I used to round up back in Europe, but after living in the US for a while I never tip anywhere else. I don't want this cancer to spread.
You seem to have strong opinions about the demographics of plaintiffs in employment-related lawsuits. Is that based on evidence? I’d be interested in seeing any relevant data. My impression of lawyers is that they can look at a prospective client of any color of the rainbow and see green.
I don't want to start a nationalist flame war here, but: you and I should agree to disagree on this one. (Austria was lovely, though, from one end to the other.)

It is not, for what it's worth, my contention that tipping is the only way restaurants can work, or even the best one; only that it is a rational system.
(your comment made me realized I kept typing "RBS" when I meant "RBI" in a Sorbet context. oops)

Anyway, I did have my strong suspicions that Sorbet would pay off more in a codebase that used it from Day 1. Glad to hear at least one report that indeed, that was the case.
When all bars allowed smoking, all bars were the same. Then there came a govt ban on smoking in bars. So all bars are the same. (they all wailed loudly, but because it applied equally clientele had nowhere else to go.)

As a non smoker there are now options to go out I never had before. Restaurants are now safe again. (well except for parents who think it's OK for a child to be on a phone playing games at full audio volume, but we'll save that rant for another day.)

That would be a package manager lol.
Hmm no but offering that model as a service does have a strong possibility of infringing copyright. I think the legal complexity of this will have to be hashed out in court the next few years.
Agree.

I’m regularly surprised at how disappointed I am when I visit the site given how popular or how high its profile is. So often it’s content is some combination of boring, repetitive or uninspired.
>My credit score wasn't even a number, it just didn't exist. Even the bank I banked with, which could see that I had more than $8k USD deposited monthly, that could see I had $30k in an account with them, would not give me a loan to buy a car.

Right, because it's a credit score, not a finance score. I'm not sure what you want here. Do you want credit bureaus to collect even more information about your financial life so they can have a more accurate picture?
Oddly, "bubbler" is the standard term in Australia as well.
Is it on a good track to continue existing, though?

TFA is specifically describing how the kind and number of situations in which a tip is expected/asked for (if only by a payment terminal interface) is rapidly expanding – and if every service is tipped, no service is tipped.
Please look up how the UPI system works in india. The processor is the government and they don’t take a cut.
Should it? There's opinions people have, and what they're game enough to express in a forum / board / guest book. Down voting I don't think is absolute, it depends on the thread topic and what is being discussed. As such it might act as a guide of what the general opinion is, or it could mean the poster has stuck a sharp nerve for many who feel very annoyed for personal emotional reasons and little to do with the topic.

As such down voting might mean more review of why, addition research to get a better grounding if your own opinion was based more on a gut feeling or poor outdated information ... or it could be the opposite.
This actually happened because Christians (maybe other religions too?) got a reputation for being bad tippers. IDK, maybe it was something about already giving 10% before tax to God to take care of orphans and widows, but seeing their pastor and politician in highend cars and suits? IDK.

So as a counter to that reputation pastors began to admonish folks to tip well, to show them the love of Jesus as 20%.
Does the point of sale system ask for a tip? Is there a check with a tip line on it that you sign? Is there a prominent tip jar? Then: tip (or do business elsewhere). Else: don't.
The issue is that you're vehemently defending this practice. As far as I can tell the only reason for this is simply because of momentum. None of the arguments you are making really make much sense. There's strong evidence to the contrary in fact. Not only is the practice particularly unique to America (and Canada), but the practice and laws defending it just enable wage theft (employers not paying minimum wages by claiming tip credits that don't exist). The practice was developed during feudalism and was a form of oppression. The current practice also divides the working class and prevents them from working together in a larger coalition advocating for a larger minimum wage. No one here is really against the concept of tipping, but people are upset about its expansion and that the practice is essentially required. You have said that the money is optional, but we all know that this isn't exactly true. Technically/legally yes, but in practice this doesn't work out. People aren't tipping for service, they are tipping to avoid bad service (as many have said here) and to avoid social stigma from their peers. This is not the system you have laid out in your many comments, this is just a convoluted form of class oppression and wage theft. Sometimes we need to reevaluate things we've been doing just for the sake of doing. Momentum is not a reason to continue a harmful practice.
I don't follow your logic. If every service has an element of optional, variable, explicit customer sharing of labor costs, no service does?
If the magnetosphere disappeared tomorrow, completely, as it did on Mars at one point, it would take literally billions of years for our atmosphere to totally degrade away. It would take at least tens of millions for it to degrade appreciably. The magnetosphere of Mars failed just 500 million years after our red neighbor formed, and even after the several billion intervening years, and after having started with much less overall atmospheric bulk than Earth, Mars still has some atmosphere left (very little to be sure, but we're talking about billions of years of being bathed in solar wind and radiation). In other words, if our magnetosphere disappeared tomorrow, you likely wouldn't have to worry about major atmospheric failure for many generations of your family's lives.

Caveat: Even with the atmosphere fully present, the magnetosphere does indeed stop many charged particles that a gas barrier does not, and this would definitely be an immediate problem to surface life to some extent (how much is debatable however). We'd also be much more susceptible to electronic and electrical grid damage caused by a much larger percentage of solar storms that would have previously been too weak to do much because of our giant magnetic shield..
