It's a recommended practice (I hate the term "best", everything depends).

Why? Quite easy actually - having random passwords is better than reusing the same everywhere. Random passwords are impossible to remember by a regular human, hence you need a password manager. Using a local file as a password manager poses a usability/availability risk (you have to sync it yourself, you have to back it up yourself, you have to make it available on all devices without putting it at risk, you have to secure it, etc.), hence cloud-based password managers are better for the average person, especially coupled with MFA for critical accounts (banks, email, etc.). If you're a highly technical or highly security conscious person, or under threat, the equation changes of course, but the recommendation for a cloud-based password manager isn't meant to apply to everyone, just most people.

devs "hate" excel because you have to reference by col/row (C10 = tax rate, etc). But few devs know that you can name cells (and ranges and tables). Just to the left of the formula bar you'll see a textbox with the default name of the cell (C10). Just delete C10 and call it "tax_rate" and now you can reference "tax_rate" in all your formulas.
Well the ones with li-ion batteries ought to last at least 2000 cycles, or about 6 years with a cycle each day, but there are lots of mid tier models being made with lifepo4s now, and those last like 6000 cycles, so there is far more breathing room. They're also cheaper so you may be able to more easily break even.
The wording part is my fault - I didn't think about on vs in, in my mind it would be on the walls and stuff / kitchen is the insides of the room - but I can see how that's maybe not appropriate.

There was another group inside Google that shipped something based on Genode.

The most valuable thing for the community to extract from projects like these would be capability based drivers, ideally on top of seL4.

The choice to not use seL4 as a base for Fuchsia is also confusing. It lends credence to the idea that Fuchsia is a project to retain engineers, rather than to build a solid OS. I think it would be possible for a team like the Fuchsia team to build a better platform than Genode, but starting from scratch without seL4 is unlikely to produce anything better. They definitely didn't come up with a better security model, or IPC performance.
“Room on a broom” is a popular kids book. I wonder if AI could match up to it
For important accounts you should probably update your passwords.

Assuming you aren't reusing passwords, you shouldn't need to track down every online store you once bought something from. But your should consider updating your passwords for bank accounts, Paypal, Amazon, Google and whatever else would be a major headache if it were compromised.

Many Fortune 500 disagree.
Because using a password manager as intended solves several well-known and very common password-related attacks like credential stuffing.

A password manager makes it possible for the average person to have high length, completely random passwords for each and every site, and to have them available on all of their devices.

That makes it a lot less likely that people will do bad things like re-using passwords, having short passwords, or writing them down.

My LastPass account would have been in the breach, but as my vault was protected with 151,000 iterations and a very long password, it'd take an attacker a long time to be able to get to my Hacker News password, which they'd find was 50 random characters long and looked something like jtES^cqhPj3@&rgPW5#frmDpf#^gGyf3eRoPH#fUZWJQGNFJvW

They'd also find that I've since changed it!
My phrasing must be bad because you've just said exactly what I was trying to say. I certainly don't intend to frame it as a bad choice, I think it's a great choice, I was addressing why offering open-source does not cannibalise paid customers and why it can be a sensible business decision: people who would choose to self-host aren't going to pay anyway.

Maybe "pain-in-the-ass free tier" was unclear, I mean from the perspective of a customer: it's such a pain in the ass to get the product for free that it makes sense to pay for it for almost everyone.
Ha, classic PC gamer hobby. Spending over $1000 in hardware and hours in building it jut to play Diablo 2. I love it.
For the record, it's pretty easy to do this by hand. The calculator assumes the attacker knows how many of each kind of character there is, which is a weird assumption so I'll not use that. Anyway you can take the base-2 log of the number of possibilities, or more easily add the entropies of each character (if they're not related). If you take e.g. the 64 symbols of Base64 as your allowed space you get: n*log_2(64)= 6n bits of entropy for an n-character password.

> Previously, only the crew was required to be supplied with fresh air, the rest of the cabin was required to be "ventilated" but no ventilation rate was specified, so it was frequently turned off to save fuel or increase power. (This is approved and is still done on some older generation aircraft that are still in service, for instance the Boeing 737NG for certain high performance situations, search 737 Packs Off Takeoff)

How does that work though? The cabin pressurization requires constant bleed air from the engines because there are intentional leaks. So the air is constantly renewed anyway.

> training for professional endurance athletes has drastically changed in the last 5-10 years

Not by drastically changing their plans to reduce the hours and do HIIT instead.

Endurance training is what you do in endurance sports. A long distance runner needs to put in the miles. Hours after hours of running. That's it. Cyclists are on their bike 5+ hours regularly. Rowers do 10 sessions of 2+ hours a week, only few of them at high intensity. It's the hours that bring you the medal.

In fact, in order to be able to perform those long hours, endurance athletes typically force themselves to keep he intensity down. You can go hard for an hour or two, but then you need a rest day next day. You won't make it to the Olypics on 3-4 sessions a week though. So, you need to be smart and tune the intensity so that after your morning 2h distance piece you can actually meaningfully push some weights in the evening and be fit next morning for the next piece.

These 10-min HIIT "hacks" may be better for sedentary people than not doing anything at all. But they are not a silver bullet. To get anywhere, you need to put in the hours. No way around that.

> stable diffusion

A bit tongue in cheek. But, that would be like saying a pencil knows the difference between them.

Which model in particular? 1.5, 2.1?
depends on how much the demand is. If all they have want is (collectively) a small drain (less than 1-2%) once or twice a day then why not? Especially if there are some incentives provided for the same.
If you have references handy I'd love to read more. Specifically, it sounds you're saying that there is evidence in recreationally trained athletes that less frequent HIIT improves [meaningful outcomes] equal to much longer and more frequent training durations of moderate intensity cardio.

I'm much more familiar with the evidence on strength training, where it seems that volume and intensity both have important roles. But at this point in my life, I no longer have the time to train as often as I'd like!

Your salary isn't determined by impact. It's more related to your market value. Part of your market value is set by yourself, through negotiation. The other part is the labor market and what the alternative candidates are asking.

Of course impact is related, but only as a qualifier. If your impact doesn't justify the salary then that is a problem. But as long as you do enough to justify your salary than other factors tend to dominate.

Yeah. The reality is that RCS is happening and leaves Signal in the same position they are on iOS where SMS is only supported/allowed via Apple's app and they can't touch.

SMS-only users will be left in the cold. It used to be that if you use SMS you were a pariah on iOS with low quality MMS etc. Pretty soon SMS users will be a pariah on both iOS and Android. Not to mention how things change if/when the EU forces Apple to support RCS.

Furthermore RCS is adding encryption. So Signal users who communicate via SMS are missing out on that possibility to improve their use of encrypted communication with users who don't use Signal.

The narrative of the Signal+SMS silent upgrade is also falling apart. As RCS support continues to roll out, you are actively downgrading a user's experience if you install Signal as their SMS client.

Frankly I don't see these facts support SMS in Signal being worth any developer effort. And if literally anything in the SMS stack results is a security breach of a Signal user, Signal gets all the egg on their face. It just does not make sense for SMS to exist in Signal.

So not only do the batteries lose 2.3% capacity each year, and lose up to 40% of their range in cold weather, but now the power company wants to drain your car battery at night to power other people's homes. What a comedy of errors!
Kinda, although most of their new stuff is built on Mach ports, which allows construction of far more complex permissions systems.
Describe what they are asking for and what you expect will be the consequences, in writing and ask them to confirm that it is what they want, in writing. Do what they ask. When the consequences you expected arise show them the aforementioned communication.
That just means people will buy daily drivers with small batteries and charge them nightly. 15 years out of a cheap compact car with near zero operating costs sounds like a good deal, still does not make sense to waste a cycle for $1 = 20kWh fed into the grid.

No, your perspective on this is all wrong. The outrage about AI art is not about how it empowers its users.

Rather, the problem is that these systems only exists today because of the involuntary contributions of the very same people who are likely to be put out of business.

It really is about the how the contributors to these systems are being treated. The coders that contributed to Photoshop are analogous to the artists whose work was used to train these models. The difference between them is that the former gave their consent to the contribution, and the latter did not.

> Why is integrating with software so difficult? Very few people know how to do it.

I feel it's because of inherent conflict of interests and priorities. A software product can provide services to the user, or provide services to other programs. It's rare to see one that does both, because the two goals seem often at odds.

Say you're writing a software component for other programs to use. You probably have some specific programs in mind, some of which are end-user-facing. In this case, you may not want to spend resources on developing user-facing UI and features that make your product usable stand-alone - you'd likely end up competing with your own customers.

Say you're writing user-facing software instead. You want to own the entire user experience. Mixing UI, user interaction and the "business problem"-solving code together lets you work faster. Also, you don't want to make it easy for anyone to integrate with the core of your software, because that would be inviting competitors to own the user experience while using your own backend, ruining all kinds of marketing shenanigans you'd rather play on your users.

I don't like this, but I see there's a mix of both reasonable and greedy reasons why software isn't developed with integration in mind.

The major exception here is when the platform on which the software runs encourages, insists on, or demands the software to allow for integration. Windows does that to an extent with COM / DCOM. Emacs does that by its nature. But it's only moving the problem one level up - e.g. Microsoft environment can't integrate well with Apple environment.
Having a love life matters enough to people that some will pay a lot: consider what you could pay on dates, clothes, a fancy car to impress people, etc. but it is unclear what value they could give for that other than indicating that you really have a lot of money.

Personally it bugs me that one company owns all the major dating sites. It is a common complaint about their business model that they don’t really want you to get hitched because then they lose two users. Given the troubles people have forming relationships today you’d thing an NGO or government that cares about the future would be motivated to make a dating site that really works.

This describes the security industry as a whole.

We had a user click an email and get phished.

We tried training the users with tools like KnowBe4, banners above the emails that say things like THIS IS AN OUTSIDE EMAIL BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN CLICKING LINKS. Didn't help.

The email was a very generic looking "Kindly view the attached invoice"

The attached invoice was a PDF file

The link went to some suspicious looking domain

The page the link brought up was a shoddy impersonation of a OneDrive login

In just minutes, the users machine was infected, it emailed itself to all of their Outlook contacts...

So this means nothing in this list detected a goddamn thing:

Next-generation firewall
AI-powered security
'MACHINE LEARNING'
'Prevent lateral spread'
enterprise defense suite with threat protection and threat detection capabilities designed to identify and stop attacks
AV software that was advertised to 'Flag malicious phishing emails and scam websites'
'Defend against ransomware and other online dangers'
'Block dangerous websites that can steal personal data'
the cloud-based filtering service that protects your organization against spam, malware, and other email threats

And the company that we pay a huge sum of money to 'delivers threat detection, incident response, and compliance management in one unified platform' didn't make a peep.

But, we are up to the standards of quite a few acronyms.

It's all a useless shitshow. And plenty of productivity-hurting false flags happen all the time.

There are many estimates for the generation cost on wikipedia, at least the IPCC one does not try to estimate what the costs of the emissions would be.

And the price of the battery does obviously not include the generation costs of the energy needed to charge it, any charging/discharging losses, nor the infrastructure costs of a V2G setup.

So it's a very simplistic and incomplete comparison that gives a rosier picture of V2G MWh price than reality would.
The main CSS file they're using is https://www.w3.org/2008/site/css/minimum. If you download this with `curl 'https://www.w3.org/2008/site/css/minimum' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br'`, you see that it starts with 03 D7 86 1F 8B 08 08 and ends with 25 10 91 4D 7B 30 00 00 03. This is a brotli metablock header (03 D7 86: length = 3503 bytes, uncompressed), followed by a gzip header (1F 8B 08 08: signature, compression=deflate, filename present), and ends with a gzip trailer (25 10 91 4D 7B 30 00 00: crc32, size of file) and finally an empty brotli metablock header (03).

So, what's happening is that they're serving gzip files from their server (which is hinted by the "content-location: minimum.css.gz" response header), which are being compressed again using brotli somewhere else (e.g. at a reverse proxy).
