Adoption of open source, most open source licenses already come with broad waivers so compliance would fall mostly on the adopters.
This is all based on a myth though, primarily the myth that "only COBOL" developers are a common thing (people believe this for COBOL even though it's never really been a thing for other languages, wasn't even ever really a thing on mainframes, increasingly they are majority Java).

What I'm getting at is that you aren't going to find a ton of jobs where you are working on COBOL but somehow avoiding Java when the two are connected at the hip on the platforms they are used on.
Its easy to see why dictators end up surrounding themselves with yes men and become detached from reality, and make catastrophic decisions.

If bad news is punished, then truth will stop travelling up the chain. Most managers want fewer issues, so naturally even if they say they appreciate honest feedback, their behavior which is closely watched by their subordinates, will indicate they in fact resented the additional headache an issue caused.

I'm in the midst of creating a financial planning firm serving tech professionals looking to take sabbaticals and mini-retirements (i.e., my former self).

Probably too early to give you an informed opinion but I've enjoyed the ride this far. I have professional excuses to continue learning new things and I get to feel like I'm helping people while occasionally building useful tech tools for my practice.

My colleagues are generally kind nerds, which fills my soul, and I've really enjoyed connecting with them over the past year and a half. Admittedly, I've been exceedingly fortunate in having a large buffer and low personal expenses.
Nordstrom is one of those retail stores where I'd feel a loss if they went away. They're a pretty good company from a consumer perspective: their customer service is fantastic in my experience, and of course their return policy is legendary. I've even worked with them a little bit as a developer, and they seemed very cool.
Was a bit sad to discover the current studio website at this point. Everything is coerced to the past state, it's a pretty bold and artistic move. Appreciate it.
My experience was the same. TJ Maxx on black friday was cleaner and more organized than Saks Off on any regular tuesday

yes and that's how I know you never worked in the game industry. A lot of companies use perforce, perforce is a source control system that also has assets, and also has metadata, that you also have to take backups and query.
All software storing user details that would be a problem if they were leaked, I'd assume. That would include basically all software with a login.
What's the context here? Are you somehow reducing power to standard 120/240v LED lightbulbs (how)? LED light strips? Custom designs using raw LED modules?

iirc (and I may not be remembering correctly), heat is what causes the degradation. Cutting power makes the LED run cooler.

For personal use at home it's important to buy high quality lightbulbs for this reason. Cheap ones will cut costs on cooling and fail prematurely or experience degradation if they don't fail. Better quality bulbs will last longer with less degradation. It can be hard to evaluate what's good; lots of companies will sell you cheap crap at inflated prices. Ikea uses solid metal bases on many of their bulbs which helps with heat (they use good CRI emitters too). I suspect weight might be a good heuristic to evaluate quality. Also avoid the high power ~1600 lumen ones, it's common for them to fail early even for the higher end ones, they just make too much heat to dissipate in the standard bulb form factor. Afaik Ikea eventually discontinued their 1600lm product, probably for this reason.

If you're capable of operating the vehicle, it can still count. A driving instructor once told me that if you have to sleep off drunkenness in the car, find a place to hide the key (ideally outside the car) so you are not considered capable of operating it.

Really, these laws are pretty absurd, but drunk driving kills a lot of people so here we are.
These statements are not mutually exclusive. Math checks out :)

For him it's a text editor, that's how he sees it, since the Lisp underneath is not touched by him.

True, some extensive modes written in Lisp by users are a work of art. That's a layer a non-programming-user may not see.
Their tax documents unambiguously state that the US government is their primary funder.

At any rate, the USG has enormous leverage over the governance of Tor and that should worry anyone that pretends to care about their online privacy re: Tor.

Mullvad putting out PR about funding TP as a peer of the USG doesn't make TP look good, it makes Mullvad look seedy.
You'll get no argument from me. Mine is in the FSD beta, and I never use it after similar experiences.

The worst part is that for some people, FSD does seem to work exceptionally well.

But I am in rural Canada, and the thing is a death trap here. I imagine in wealthy pockets with an abundance of Teslas (and subsequent data/attention, well maintained roads, mapping, etc.), it probably does handle really well.

You can just look at what the imaging is picking up and displaying on the console to see this stuff is just not ready. Mine rapidly flickers between trucks, cones, pedestrians, etc. The traffic lights do this too. I imagine it is the same on all Teslas, so even at the image detection level something is really underbaked.
You presumably retain the ability to control disclosure about vulnerability research you conduct against authorized targets; the most common class of authorized targets is "software you run yourself, in settings where vulnerabilities don't involve talking to other people's computers/servers".

Where people get into trouble is when they authorize themselves to conduct research against other people's computers. If you want firm control over the disclosure of your vulnerabilities, find other people's computers that authorize testing, or test your own computers.

> why I stopped bothering to put effort into most humanities or liberal arts

Surely one of the most unchanging aspects of life that affects us every day is human nature.
agreed. I write Go, Rust, and Python (now only when I have to), but If I had to stand up a small business with a CRUD app in a couple weeks I'd go with Django no doubt - mainly for the no-worries auth and user management within the same monolith as everything else. I don't care about the ORM, I can quickly map out a relational schema. It's the user stuff that's killer.

With more time, yeah I might choose Go or Rust and setup a couple different nodes - an API gateway, a user auth node like KeyCloak, Ory, or SuperTokens, then a Go backend.

But it would be so nice to have that all ready in one.
Great hearing from you! I think you're taking a wise approach. I inverted things from the way that you did them-- I spent a year studying for the MCAT alongside work (had taken all the prereqs 10+ years earlier as a part of my degree). I used MCAT prep as a litmus test for my seriousness about the whole thing, and after it went well I quit my job to stack up post-bac courses and tick the various remaining application boxes.

It's funny that you say that about the lottery-- my wife and I were unsatisfied in our careers and were very focused on financial independence/early retirement and had set a pretty aggressive retirement date. As we were each thinking through what we would do on the other side of retiring, I realized I'd probably make the run at med school that I'd been considering for a long time. At that point, it stopped making sense to wait.

There's no question that it's a pretty significant upheaval. Fortunately, my wife has been very supportive throughout and even encouraged me at several points to make the jump. We had to move across the country, and we've had a kid in the process. Timing with COVID ended up working out well, as we don't really have the feeling of lost time and opportunity that others seem to.

Good luck in making your decisions from here-- it sounds like you've been thoughtful and intentional about the moves that you've made, and I hope you figure out what's best for you and your wife.
If they wanted zero days they would just buy them, like everybody else does.
I’m not sure what your objection is. The article pretty clearly qualifies its assertions that this phenomenon is observed in mice. Are you saying there is no possible way that these results could be recapitulated in humans?

I got an HP proliant ML350 G6 for free, so I want to use that for my server. The problem is it has a firmware issue. It thinks it's overheating when it's not, and kicks the fans onto their highest setting.
Software wise I want to run my own local music and video streaming, filesharing, and be able to run whatever I need to practice network/cybersecurity/webdev. I'm very new to everything involved, so it's going to take me a long time to figure out.
> but it's a short article and it gets most of the high points.

I disagree. It's a pretty detailed article (~1800 words) and Microsoft's role just gets a passing mention.
I seem to recall that Sun put ZFS under a license that has been deemed incompatible with the GPL by pretty much everyone except Canonical, and so that it can't be integrated with the kernel but must remain a "bolt-on" for legal reasons.

It won't surprise me if one of these days Oracle decides that Canonical is a ripe lawsuit target over ZFS.
He must be talking about the Shah of Iran
Peak oil was both right and wrong at the same time. Higher prices slowed demand growth, and made tight-oil financially feasible at the same. This combination made the peak much closer to a plateau.

I also believe (but could be wrong), that a not insignificant amount of the success of oil alternatives today (which helps to slow demand growth) is due to a flurry of research that started with the price shocks of the 70s that were definitely not due solely to supply-demand issues.
First time I installed Linux, I was trying to Gaim on it.

I managed to compile Gaim before I managed to install it from RPM packages.

Using Debian was a moment of pure epiphany.

Good times.
When a company values profits above all else, the only thing that can save us from that company’s gross negligence is fines strong enough to eliminate those very same profits (and ideally the company’s budget for bribing politicians too).
That causality seems backwards. Linux "benefitted" because it was the target of the lawsuit in the first place, which wouldn't have been aimed at Linux had Linux not already been the market winner. It was the USL v. BSDI lawsuit of a decade earlier (which to be clear absolutely did involve copied Unix code) that effectively killed BSD in the market by holding it back as Linux left the launchpad.
It's a very exciting time to be working in this space! Going beyond structured databases and file formats like JSON/CSV, there are also systems that can query APIs, source code, ML models, etc.

My own Trustfall query engine is one of them: https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall

For example, you can query the HackerNews APIs from your browser: "Which Twitter/GitHub users comment on stories about OpenAI?" https://play.predr.ag/hackernews#?f=1&q=IyBDcm9zcyBBUEkgcXVl...

One of its real-world use cases is at the core a Rust semver linter: https://predr.ag/blog/speeding-up-rust-semver-checking-by-ov...
That sounds so appealing. I would love to learn more about how you got started on the path. Do you mind connecting with me through email (in my profile)

Some of this stuff is genius.

Since we're speculating, the brushes could also be some harder material, with Carbon Nanotubes impregnated, or graphene infused and coated, etc.

Also, although I don't have the numbers for your issue about strong magnets pushing it away, I've found you need REALLY strong B Fields to do this. In other words, are we sure this is an effect that is at play here? (I'm asking)

Its peak hacker news to come up with a term like "legacy industry".
You're assuming that the traffic sent is free to be whatever. I could easily see telcos restricting this "5G for IoT" stuff to be just traffic to designated servers, with the more permissive hotspot use a separate extra service -- at which point, you're paying for it regardless of this hack.
Why would anyone want to recreate VSCode in Emacs? It's like asking a philharmonic orchestra to play Country Roads... Yeah, they probably can do a very good job at it, but they are there to play some more interesting music, wouldn't you think?

This clearly shows you've never used the program you are so confidently talking about... What tabs?
I'm saying that we see article after article about breakthrough findings in mice, only to find out later that it doesn't apply to humans, and therefore findings in mice aren't particularly interesting news.

I know! For HN readers not familiar with the legal industry, Boies was considered the superstar of the legal world at the time and was well known to demand $50 million retainers.
It’s a heady picture because there were many Unixes. Most were me-to and fairly generic for the most part, but some had novel capabilities in specific areas. IRIX for graphics, Solaris for Zones and ZFS, but none of them had everything. Often what was special was down to proprietary hardware.
> Mott and Bailey. This image is not pornography. It's a tasteful head shot. You're introducing any discussion of pornography.

Mott and Bailey. I can also name drop logical fallacies to no purpose. This image, though cropped, is from Playboy and the full image features a clearly nude women shot from the back and exposing her buttocks. Your quibble over a specific categorization again misses the forest for the trees. Women are saying that this image makes them feel uncomfortable due to its origins, and there is no technical reason that it needs to remain in the test set or the curricula. There are many suitable alternatives that would not have this problem.

>>[minor point - if you are a legal stickler, use of the Lena image was also done in infringement of copyright.
>
> If you are a legal stickler, or even just support basic rights, fair use is integral to the research process. [1]

Honestly the smart thing to do here is to not engage with your point, as again, it is minor and not actually relevant to the thrust of the conversation. If you want to treat my decision to not push further into this as a moral win, enjoy it.
The Network is big-endian (network byte order).
It's not transparent (or at least any more than any other means of accessing TOR). If you at all access the internet through somewhat normal means (without running your own ISP and connecting to an IXP physically) you are placing some level of trust in a service provider.

What these sort of VPNs do is allowing you to move that point of trust to another party than the one that maintains your intrastructure (your normal ISP). You do not give them any more trust than your normal ISP, but since your normal ISP is usually more regulated it is a good idea to scrutinize the VPN provider more.

I trust mullvad more than my normal ISP on privacy. mullvad is also one of the few VPN providers that has not sold its product as a end-all-be-all privacy solution while a lot of others have been spreading FUD (things like saying that your ISP can see in cleartext all your traffic even though 99% is over https, saying their products protect against hackers when there is no evidence for that, etc.).
Specifically, they're talking about mechanical drag when the desired power is zero - ie. Freewheeling.

Turns out in typical car use, the efficiency gains when driving outweigh the losses from this.
Leaders are those who do what should be done without being told.
Those are good arguments for ephemeral workloads but they don't make as much sense for databases.
Arguably the USSR was destroyed by the curse, but again it was even bigger than Russia and not that simple to analyze.

If you’re in SF, NYC, or another major city, anyone not in tech or an adjacent field sees you as a techbro gentrifier who is ruining their city. That makes it hard to make friends. You’re basically starting out at -20 reputation with 60-70% of people you meet.
Yes that's why yoga is so good at calming you down and making you healthy. It soothes and calms the parasympathetic nervous system, and helps relieve and release many held tensions in the body.

It's no good just to do meditation and calm your mind if your body and nervous system is still holding on to so much stress.

The body remembers many things and "embodies" many emotions. You can notice this if you do part-by-part relaxation. Lie down in corpse pose and close your eyes, and relax each part of your body by turn. From right toes, through feet, ankles, calves, shins, knees, thighs, hips. Then the left leg. Then right fingertips and the rest of the right arm. Then left arm. Then abdomen. Then chest. Then spine. Then head.

The more granular you go with relaxing each part of the anatomy, the more intense (and longer in duration) it is. [E.g. in feet you can do: relax each toe, toe nail, first joint of the big toe, ball of the big toe, next toe. Then soul of the foot. Then inner side of the foot. Then outer side. Then top of the foot. Then inside the foot. Bones and joints in the foot. Muslces and tendons in the foot. Nerves of the foot. Skin of the foot.] Relax each part. Let of any tension in each part. And move on.

Anyway, you can just do a level of anatomical granularity you are comfortable with. But what you will probably notice is that as you go over your body doing this, your mind will wander, and stuff you hadn't thought about the entire day (or longer) will come up. Some annoying or painful or traumatic moment or whatever will arise, as you hit on some particular body part. And it will interrupt your relaxation. So you just stay with it, and then keep going, relaxing your body. Skeptical folks will probably doubt that there's a correlation between a body part and a "stored" emotion or experience, but in that case I encourage you to try it. Relaxing the body in this way really relieves and releases many things stored in it, that without bringing awareness to them in this way, you would not have realized.
They're not, those are useful examples.
You might have missed the part where this is already scaring Theo de Raadt, to the point of recommending EU users not use openSSH anymore.

How many here are confident of writing software as securely as Theo?

edit: I still think this is going in a good direction, but at this stage this kills a lot of small businesses, startups and open source.

Requiring certification for every release means killing off most software, let alone the fees. Forget multiple supported releases or LTS, everything will be rolling release.

Hard to imagine that the US is not massively over-supplied with office space right now, given that some double digit percentage of workers will never go back to an office.

Every office space construction project right now is either paused or being driven forward by the sunk cost fallacy.
Notice the passive voice.
BSDI was legally in the clear in January 1994 and FreeBSD had an unencumbered version out by the end of 1994. Linux distros were still toys at that point. I think it's fair to say that the lawsuits didn't help BSD, but the lawsuits don't seem like they should have been a decisive reason for Linux overtaking them in mindshare and marketshare.
The biggest issue I have with Mastodon is that I can't automatically block instances that have a 10k character limit.

> include ALPR-camera-triggered automated fines for driving on certain roadways at certain times of certain days to those "without a permit" (who is eligible for the special permits, how eligibility is determined, etc. is not discussed)

The issue with these scheme, is that they are pushed and implemented by bureaucrats rather than innovators. What a bureaucrat knows how to do (and what's beneficial to him) is to create new regulations, bureaucratic processes and levy taxes, fines, fees and so on. Where the money's actually going? Some opaque budget where it's redistributed to fund, among other things, salaries and generous pensions for the bureaucrats that have to be hired to manage this extra regulation!

The real solution to incentivize using the ring roads is to make them more efficient and a faster, better alternative to going through the center of the city. That requires understanding why people are still driving through.

The other issue is that anti-car activists are often idealists rather than pragmatic. Their approach to selling the 15 minute city should be to make it so that it's cheaper than driving everywhere, faster and more convenient, while leaving the option for people to still own a car and use it. Naturally, if not taking the car is the better option, people will leave them in a parking garage most of the time.
C23 finally introduces binary literals, e.g. you can write now "0b11110000" instead of "0xf0" for situations where binaries are more readable (but with a bit of 'training', hexadecimal works just as well).

Also, bitwise operations are essentially "SIMD for bits" and important down on the machine code level, it makes a lot of sense to have that same functionality also in higher level languages (unfortunately not all common bitwise instructions - like rotations - made it into high level languages).

Nobody's writing production Haskell or Erlang for this save maybe a half-dozen companies; it's all C++ or Java, and it represents a very small minority of the code as critical paths are usually tiny slivers of a codebase.
Maybe you’re talking about some of the headers? Idk.

It doesn’t matter in any case as OpenAI released the ChatGPT official API, so the original post is irrelevant. That package will transition to the official API and be should be usable.
