> Or on paper, maybe by memo.

You're not getting out of the problem that the distinction is essentially arbitrary. You could record everything you say in private. Every single frame that appears on any screen in the company was in some piece of memory at some point in time. What principled distinction are you proposing between what is and isn't a crime to not actively retain?

If the feds essentially want to wiretap you, why should that happen at your expense instead of theirs? Even in cases when you're innocent?

> This is literally what evidence is. It's something that you carefully collect and store to review later in connection with something else. You don't have to "store" the knife you stabbed somebody with or the gun you shot someone with (you've already got enough use out of them) but if somebody destroys them, they're destroying evidence.

There is a distinction between physical objects and information. If you have a knife, destroying it isn't an ordinary thing to do. Meanwhile we have serious concerns about TLC solid state drives which make them unsuitable for many purposes because you can only erase and rewrite them about a thousand times.

Computers inherently operate by rearranging bits. Writing something new coincides with erasing what was there before. Keeping everything forever isn't feasible. So where's the line?
So, am I still supposed to specify UID and GID? Should I be using Alpine or Debian? How do I handle loading certificates? Should I use an override config for development? In this thread, someone was indicating that the naive volume option does not work over SSH. Also in this thread was a request to pin by tag and not hash. Do I still need to worry about Docker blowing a hole in iptables?

Maybe not black magic, but there are a lot of subtle optimizations for which there is much conflicting guidance.

Old legend I heard is that the most radioactive public place (re: not a literal university radiation lab) is none other than Grand Central. Something about the natural levels in granite and the consequences of making literally the whole building from this one rock source. No idea how true and how badly I am mis remembering
If you don’t understand why telling white people to stay the hell away from black people as they are a hate group and there is no hope of helping them is racist, I’m afraid you simply don’t understand what racism to any degree where further explanations would help.

That's how my Pebble watch died. It's a shame since it was a hackable device with good battery, but I misjudged resealing the device.
There was a story about Ayn Rand's sister.

She came to visit in New York, and was bewildered by the vast array of toothpaste in a local grocery store.

She was so accustomed to shortages, and expected queues, that she could not accept the immediacy and availability of commerce in the U.S.

She did not stay long.

Yes with phones. It is honestly disgusting because it generates so much unnecessary waste.

I have a PC that I build myself over 9 years ago and run linux on. I upgrade hardware as needed but I will never have to worry about security update nonsense.
You missed my point. Arbeit Macht Frei was a nazi slogan, you aren't supposed to parse it. Similarly "It's OK to be white" is a white supremacist slogan. In both cases, if you're familiar with the slogan, then you respond to the signal, not the meaning of the words. It's a sort of inverse dog-whistle.
Ah yes. Schrodinger’s racist. The racists can gleefully agree with your opinion and if anyone gets upset you can just resort to “just joking bro!”
Sending them $5 via Gumroad or Patreon is worth hundreds or thousands of ad views, depending on the creator's RPM. YouTube ad payouts are pretty stingy.
The long term practicality of this depends on mainline kernel support. LineageOS is cool, but the thing no one talks about is that while the Android stack might get updated, the kernel often isn't, which means any kernel level exploits remain unpatched after the support period ends.

Which is why this reads as kind of a stunt. A repairable phone is great, but if it becomes unsafe to use then what's the point? The software needs to be "repairable" too.
The cleanest way in your use case would be to store keys in an LDAP server instead of local users' authorized_keys

While I loved the idea of the Primer, I think one of the themes of the book was that it actually couldn’t work fully with just AI. All the children who end up “exceptional” (eg not just part of the mouse army) actually had a human tutor behind the scenes.
Who's "we?" Crypto was always a stupid grift. I've never touched the stuff, because although I was born to be a sucker, I am at least wise enough to have realized this about myself.

I think there's something genuinely new in the world, and I think it is very foolish to assume too much about how that's going to play out. Humans will be human, because we always are. Beyond that, the only way anyone can know is by finding out.

No, men aren’t looking for dates cause online dating has made it really brutal for them and allowed women to be more choosy

It’s not by choice
It's great that the author built this as an api-first service for maximum compatability, but what would really help adoption and make it a lot easier to use is per-language libraries. Why write all the request sending and parsing yourself, when you could instead simply write:

try {
const isOdd = require('isOdd')({ apiKey: 'xxx', ...options });
}
catch (e) {
if (typeof e === 'IsOddAuthenticationException') {
console.log('Could not connect to issOdd service. Is your API key correct?');
}
else {
console.log(e);
}
}

try {
const is43Odd = await isOdd(43);
}
catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}

console.log(is43Odd ? '43 is odd!' : 'Sorry, 43 is not odd.
Yes, this is where the article is wrong. Race is not one monolithic bloc. If admissions were purely meritocratic, then the incoming class would be approximately 70% asian, 20% white, and 10% other. Clearly, some minority demographics don't need affirmative action in order to be competitive in applications. But the article errs in assuming that all minority demographics are equally dependent on affirmative action.

The ROM doesn't cover all of the software that runs on a phone to my understanding. We need truly open phones.
So you start with just no and then proceed to argue my point for me? Weird flex but ok. Anyway it's nice to see the quality of discourse hasn't degraded on HN over the years.
It means that young women are increasingly able to exercise their preference for dating high status men, who are on average older.
> No, men aren’t looking for dates cause online dating has made it really brutal for them and allowed women to be more choosy

Isn't the result the same? More people are single? Or are we saying that more men have polyamorous relationships?
I have a similar experience.
For pity's sake, try to have a sense of the possible that can encompass at least a little more than a Mark 82. Computers that kill are most
of a century old by now, and it's easy to kill in any case - if it weren't, you'd need more than gears and lenses to make World War II weapons so fearsomely good at it.

A computer that tries earnestly to save a human life - I'd never heard of that before today, but now I have [1], and now you have too. If that doesn't suffice to excite your imagination at least a little bit, I'm bewildered as to what possibly could.

Currently that subset is dating the same men, while thinking they are monogamous

The older men they are dating are not only dating younger women, or just one younger woman

Sorry, just a lame joke on the phrasing of the title + author: "The Lava Lamps That Help Keep The Internet Secure from Tom Scott"
While hopefully it is satire, it would also make a good college level exercise.

There's suffient nuance and opportunity to be creative, while at the same time requiring some basic skills to set up (server, dns, https,and so on.)

Then for those more advanced there are creative extensions to implement - support any base, support text, in multiple languages, support formulas (is result odd or even) and so on.

Back in my university days we'd take trivial problems like this and "extend" them in creative ways faaar beyond the assignment. It both stretched or skills, and also taught us something about feature creep.

As in, sometimes it's OK not to build the perfectly generic, useful in all cases, megolith when a simple x % 2 == 1 will do.

There is nothing weird about an explicitly right wing polling organization making polls explicitly to support right wing talking points.

Won't really read this, but I am wondering how it's related to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda-mu_calculus (and if the author is aware).
Take it from a serial dater male with great success on tinder/bumble.. the lives of many women is substantially worse than even guys that can't get a date. Unless you do a great job explaining the purpose of dating (courting?), There is a very high chance she'll simply become the temporary play thing of dozens of men. And being smart and well educated seems to have basically little to do with it.. I know many more married hair dressers than I do girls in tech. And beyond that... Many that ARE married are basically angry at life because they settled and are not sexually attracted to their husbands even. I almost thing men have it easier.. which you can verify for yourself if you look up depression stats and prescription stats.
On the other hand, airports now are so large, and the terminals built with misanthropically meandering paths, that the transfer times between gates can exceed 20 minutes at a brisk pace.

On a recent international arrival at JFK (I think) I had to walk what felt like at least a mile through long corridors, past moving walkways that were all disabled. Even though they don't need wheelchairs, there's no way my grandparents would be able to walk that comfortably, pulling their suitcases along, especially with no benches to stop and rest.
This is just some random dev though. Soon an equivalent service will be bundled with your office 365 subscription, backed with five nines of reliability and a corporate support plan.
I saw the submission before the year was added, I was excited that it might be a new post by the author.
Pedantic quibble: the is43Odd variable is out of scope for the final log statement. Let's push it into the PR queue and circle back to this after we clear our outstanding merges.

You literally just described the Amish.
That's an another angle I haven't thought about. Thank you for sharing.
I have recently heard the opposite, at least as far as women goes. For a lot of women, especially mothers, being a single mother is a whole lot easier than being a married mother, since there is one less person in the house they have to take care of. A whole lot of men were not socialized to be actual contributing partners, which loops back around into the prime reason why a lot of men are having a hard time dating these days, because a whole lot of women are sick of putting up with that, and are instead looking for men who will contribute an equal amount of housework, cooking, emotional labour, etc.

Especially given that it's not broadly reasonable for a single partner to go out and earn enough money at one job to support both people (let alone a family), it's no longer acceptable for men to not contribute around the house equally.
Custom roms are a half-solution unless Unisoc have solid mainline support in the kernel, so that it can be updated past the support period without hacking in blobs. Custom ROMs can also be less secure (and less useful as many applications annoyingly check for verity) if the manufacturer doesn't allow access to low level hardware security features.
But they have dark mode, so it will work. /s
I don't really understand how such a poll can be considered legitimate or humane. From the news articles I've read since the 2014 separatist movement happened, the majority of people in that region left. So how can you have a poll where you say everyone agrees with you when you've driven out all the people who disagree?
Why Is There a B in Doubt: The Men Who Ruined English Spelling [video]
Start with something you can handle. Which language doesn't really matter but keep in mind that are so many possibilities. When you are comfortable with your first language, try some other, preferably with a different paradigm. It's totally fine using one language for development most of the time, just remember there are so many ways to accomplish one task.

The age does not matter as long as you can sit down and code. You don't see many old people doing programming because it's simply not many there. Computing is relatively new. It's obvious most people entering this field would be young, older people might require a change of career hence less incentive.
Ask HN: Tips on Running a Webapp on a VPS?
I just paid for a VPS with OVHCloud in order to host a webapp and a Postgres db. I'm capable enough to ssh in and get things running, but I don't have any sysadmin experience so I'm likely to make rookie mistakes and omit some important setup.

Are there any good resources with some sysadmin tips for hosting a hobby project?
These explanations take the diode out of its context, view it in isolation from the overall circuit which is always a mistake, the frequency response of what is before and after the clipping has a greater affect. If you want to understand how different types of diodes affect the sound you need to look at the harmonics they create and how the input and output circuitry affect the harmonics created by the clipping.
Will probably get downvoted for this. But I'm a very conventionally attractive guy with a good job in a major US city. I basically have an unlimited stream of dates through dating apps from women of all walks of life. Upwards of 20 - 50 matches a day if I really push it. People already know this, but I dont think they know how bad the schew is. Every young single woman is chasing the same few men and they dont care if that guy is dating other women.

As these women enter their 30s I really dont know what is going to happen. Society will be an odd place in twenty years. The social dynamics between men and women have never existed like this.
This is looking at it from the wrong side though. It isn't the hardware vendor ending support there, it's the software vendor.

PC hardware can be supported indefinitely because it's documented, more or less. Windows uses a hardware abstraction layer so the old drivers can be used with the new Windows. Hardware only stops being supported by Windows when Microsoft decides it, not Intel or NVIDIA or Broadcom.

The Linux community writes open source drivers, or the hardware makers do themselves, so they can be updated by the kernel developers when they make changes to the kernel and continue to work. You can put run the latest Linux kernel on a PC from 1995.

But for phones the hardware support comes as an opaque binary blob tied to a specific kernel version, so when that kernel falls out of support, the hardware is slag unless someone has the resources to reverse engineer it. Which they might if it was just the wireless or just the storage controller, but it's not.
As an asian man who has traveled to LATAM and the US, I am not surprised. American women are super entitled, hard to approach and borderline delusional when selecting men. It is never enough for them. They are hard to approach, judgy and sincerely just a pain in the ass. Women in LATAM for example are a thousand times sweeter, more feminine and approachable.

That's true, Mathematica is more advanced. But it's not cheap and it brings in a whole new world with it. You do have to learn to use it explicitly while with SymPy, you can start after a 5 minute introduction. I would say, Mathematica a good professional instrument while SymPy is a good hobbyist tool.

A note to a bypassing reader, if you want to try Mathematica, and not sure if you would stay with it, don't go for a desktop license. Get a Raspberry Pi instead. Mathematica comes free for Raspberry!

>Their game is exploiting this lapse of common sense that many people seem to have who refuse to take the obviously winning strategy of just ignoring this and who instead must constantly fight for the sake of fighting even if the social consequences are terrible.

Who is fighting? I responded to a post in a thread, here, a place where we discuss things by posting. Everything you wrote appears to be a huge projection.
It's an empty question. There is nothing in the question to answer. The idea that one or the other is more important is irrational. There simply is nothing like a rational scale or a single quality to rank one against the other. I haven't begun to address the issues of for whom, which language, which paradigm...

It's all important, and it's all essential. Begin with something simple in both respects, and then grow the understand of each in parallel as one advances.

> become the temporary play thing of dozens of men

That's a natural result of only selecting for the 20% who know they can play the field. The "I deserve a tall handsome prince with a high income" types are all in competition with each other for a limited resource. Men aren't to blame for that.

This comparison isn’t really relevant. Could you run the then current operating system in 2006 on a computer that you bought in 1986?

A 2010 iPhone 4s can’t connect to any network in the US let alone a 2007 iPhone. Computers changed leaps and bounds in the first 20 years just like smartphones have.

But a computer bought in 1997 couldn’t run the then current Windows OS in 2010.
Phone makers make it hard, but it doesn't really have to be. You can flash GrapheneOS on a Pixel using a USB cable, Chrome and a few pokes at the developer settings menu on the phone. The only actual friction comes from the Pixel's default OS and that UX flow was a choice.
There's an old joke -- or perhaps humorous observation -- that men want to be the first person a woman sleeps with and women want to be the last person a man sleeps with.

Men tend to be looking for sex. Women tend to be looking for long-term relationships. Another similar observation: Men give love to get sex, women give sex to get love.

I work for a company that (among many other things) designs and builds custom full stone masonry fireplaces. Almost all of our customers in Northern climates are heating huge mansions with two or three fireplaces and absolutely swear by them, to the point where the fireplaces are designed first and the rest of the residence is planned around them. Once you get all that thermal mass warmed up it radiates a surprisingly long time.

If you think the situation is any better for young women, you're in for a shock. From where I'm sitting, the propaganda targeting women is far, far more pervasive and destructive. Everything about their relationships - the why, when, who and how - is undermined in an alarming majority of our institutions.

Date many and often with no inhibitions, "have fun", don't get "tied down", delay marriage and family or abstain altogether, date men with little in common, date women, prioritise career, kids are disgusting and expensive, kids threaten your Instagram physique, pointless travelling > family, make easy money on OnlyFans, there's the psychological impact (distortion of standards) of having easy access to sex with very high quality men who would never "settle" for them in marriage, and do all of this with reckless abandon because if anyone is not enthusiastically supportive then the issue is with them not you and your sordid past.

It's little wonder so many women wake up one day, they're 38, single, childless, and depressed. The antidepressant usage among Western women is shocking.

I would argue that a very large contributing factor in our young men's disillusionment with dating is a product of the damage being done to our young women.

Another controversial comment but I know more and more young men deciding not to waste time pursuing dates and instead going to prostitutes.
The American Time Use Survey data suggests that when you add up hours spent on jobs and household chores, men and women work basically the same hours: https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2013/03/14/chapter...

Of course this is an average, so it's possible in some families women are working more, and in other families men are working more.

But modern political sensibilities filter those stories so that you'll only hear those confirming a certain bias (men bad), which distorts the overall picture, which is on average equal work.
