I agree social dynamics are more complex than this (potentially childish) analysis.

Though I mentioned humour and fitting in, you're right that I didn’t really address the use of profanity to build rapport/break down formality/establish intimacy, and adjust the tone of a conversation in other ways. (Some aspects of that were on my list of things to add, but I never got around to it.)

> I get the feeling this guy doesn’t have too many close friends.

Thankfully, despite this essay & other indications to the contrary, I have a reasonable number of wonderful close friends (I’m sometimes as surprised as you), some of whom swear, and some of whom don't. I sometimes appreciate swearing, and sometimes find it grating. But I find that overuse of swearing usually detracts from a conversation, which is why I wrote up my argument for why there are potentially maybe possibly valid philosophical and pragmatic reasons for adults to consider swearing less.

When I upgraded my laptop from a 1TB HDD to 2TB of flash I thought it’d be easy to fill it. I was wrong. It’s been more than two years since and my next laptop probably won’t have more than 1TB of flash.
After a shortage of leather, "Manufacturers switched to making tabis from cotton and other fabrics. And here is where the shoe started turning into a sock."

Shojiro [...] "developed a new kind of tabi made of thick cotton and a rubber sole. They called this a jika-tabi (地下足袋) which loosely translates to “tabis that touch the ground”. This married their expertise in fabric tabis and their experiments with a material that was relatively new to Japan. And turned the sock turned back into a shoe."

So basically the most common variation in different times changed depending on available materials and these days cotton tabis are used only as part of traditional dresses.

So the beneficiaries of the fraud are executives of Polar, a joint venture between DHL and Atlas. The executives put the squeeze on their own customers. The main victims are presumably DHL and Atlas, whose boards presumably appointed and oversaw those executives.

The squeezed customers could (I don't know) have gone to a competitor that didn't require shifty "consulting" contracts; I guess they chose Polar because it was cheaper, or because coughing up gave you more reliable access to cargo space.

Is there an argument that DHL and Atlas were negligent?
How Immigrants Are Saving the Economy
Further, tax laws are usually separate from travel laws. Most countries claim world-wide income for tax purposes if you are a resident there (with other laws defining what it means to be a tax-resident) and it doesn’t matter what visa you are on. In the US, even if you work illegally as an illegal immigrant you are required to pay taxes (which isn’t reported to immigration authorities, according to the IRS website).

This is where people seem to get confused. A tourist visa might get you in the country, but there are plenty of other (tax) laws you have to abide by. For example, if you move to an EU country and work remotely for a US country that doesn’t have an EU presence, and get caught. It’s extremely likely the country could claim you are hired illegally in their country and force the company to retroactively hire you, pay employment tax, and be on the hook for VAT as well. Meanwhile, you sit in jail until they figure all that out (probably without bail since you could easily leave the country).

I remember reading an article about this not too long ago, I’ll see if I can find it. But regardless, if you want to be a nomad, being familiar with local tax laws and tax-residency laws is a must-do.
Burrito Styles Everyone Should Know
"Zero trust" is such a bad, repulsive name.
The brief answer is that if you know, or can "reasonably anticipate" legal action, you have to take steps to preserve evidence related to it.

So if Google has been sued about, let's say, how they negotiate Revenue Share Agreements (RSAs), then they need to 1) take active steps to ensure any records they have about RSAs are retained, including making sure they aren't caught by any document retention policies and 2) they need to preserve any future records that might be relevant. And they also need to do that if they can "reasonably anticipate" they might be sued, which means (at a minimum) that if someone sends them a formal note telling them that they're planning to sure about RSAs (or whatever) they need to start retaining evidence.

If all your communications are either unrecorded or are deleted after 24 hours, then when you get sued (or receive a notice indicating someone is preparing to sue) then:

1) You likely have almost no retained records you need to prevent being deleted.

2) And in fact you can very likely argue that it took you more than 24 hours to implement the legal hold, so actually all your existing recorded conversations will probably end up deleted.

3) But everything going forward will be covered. And since these lawsuits drag on for years, that's likely to be quite a lot of material. Unless you keep deleting most of them, of course. Which doesn't seem like a good plan, but I suppose we'll see how it works for Google.

I work with a vast collection of unprocessed photographs, which takes up about 6 terabytes of storage space on my 4-bay network-attached storage (NAS) device - a DS418. Despite being limited to 1 GbE speeds, the process of loading each of the raw images, which are around 60-70 MB in size, only takes half a second. I occasionally use the smb multichannel flag to improve my bandwidth when connecting to my Mac through two gigabit USB-C Ethernet adapters, but it doesn't make much of a difference. Editing over Wi-Fi using my Wi-Fi 6 connection, which usually runs at 700 Mbit/s, is also not an issue. Although having a 10 GbE connection would be nice, it is not a priority since the NAS hard drives' speed would become the limiting factor before reaching that level, and the cost of upgrading the hardware to support it is prohibitively expensive. Adding a solid-state drive (SSD) cache to my NAS could be beneficial, particularly when using a 10 GbE connection. Synology provides 10 GbE add-on cards for a small portion of their stations.

Phoenix: Efficient Computation in Memory (2017)
In this paper, we present PHOENIX, a general-purpose architecture composed of many Processing Elements (PEs) with memory storage and efficient computational logic units interconnected with a mesh network-on-chip. A preliminary design of PHOENIX shows it is possible to include 10,000 PEs with a storage capacity of 0.6GByte on a 1.5cm 2 chip using 14nm technology. PHOENIX may achieve 6TFLOPS with a power consumption of up to 42W, which results in a peak energy efficiency of at least 143GFLOPS/W. A simple estimate shows that for a 4K FFT, PHOENIX achieves 117GFLOPS/W which is more than double of what is achieved by state-of-the-art systems.

Partly it is, but there wasn't much hope to convert those to RHEL. The plan was:

1) to offload the production of the releases (effectively what is now Alma Linux). Because there's so much use of CentOS, it was pretty much a given that somebody would pick up the slack. Most of those companies weren't running stock CentOS anymore, they had their own downstream repositories

2) to give more insight into the making of RHEL minor release to CentOS SIGs and to companies that run CentOS derivatives

Facebook for example does not use the RHEL kernel and was one of the early adopters of CentOS Stream even before CentOS Linux 8 was terminated.
Some eat raw meat but like drawing motorcycle without helmet it is not safe whatever standards you have
For infants this is not food safe. The powder should be mixed with water that is at least 70C to kill bacteria that might be present in the powder.

For older babies (6+) then maybe not so important.

In the weaning period when I took over with a night bottle and the wife shut down her boobs I would just sleep with a pre-mixed (not from powder) formula pack next to my body. It would be more or less body temperature and the kiddo would like it :D

Peertube does something similar for livestreaming, with 30s to 60s of latency. WebTorrent instead of IPFS, but the concept is similar.
For: you don’t have to heat anything up.

Against: Nothing really, I guess the baby might not drink it (in theory they’re expecting warm breast milk). It’s not recommended to use straight tap water here, only filtered, due to bacteria which is harmless to older children/adults but could be a problem for a newborn.
I inherited a python based build system which had been written without any unit tests because....it's a build system right? right?? Anyhow it was the kind of thing where you'd build for 20 minutes (Android) and then have some kind of trivial error in the python code at the end of the build. You fix that and run again and waste another 20 minutes on the next thing.

I couldn't do unit tests all at once because of the design not having any way of accommodating them. I needed something to stop the enormous waste of time.

So I added type hints. The IDE should show me when illogical things were being done with parameters to methods/functions. It was fairly quick compared to a total refactoring but not effort free. I barely noticed any effect. Didn't catch a single error. Eventually I created a kind of dummy version of Android that "built" in a few seconds and I tested against that first. That allowed me to speed up changes and get some refactoring done to make a few critical unit tests and the whole thing started to get under control.

This anecdote has almost no meaning - you cannot conclude that type hints have no benefit because of one case - I just think that tests are almost always more important and hinting and the whole rigmarole of strong typing are much less of a panacea than tests are.
I'd rather say it depends on the source of the fish. In some parts of the world the salmon has parasites, and needs to be either cooked or frozen before it's considered safe to consume. Salmon from other places can however be consumed raw.

See "Up to the 1990s, raw salmon sushi was not eaten in Japan"

It really depends on the OS. On Windows everything becomes ridiculously faster. On macOS, it boots up much faster, and the machine is decidedly snappier. On Linux, it boots faster, but unless you are limited by memory (not swapping, but using getting disk cache misses) it’s not a huge deal. I was honestly underwhelmed when I upgraded a Linux box from HDD to SSD a couple years back. The best part was the silence as HDDs are loud.
I think that most Oracle haters hate them for their obscenely expensive and often idiosyncratic database product, as well as their legal division being larger than their engineering division.

And speaking of databases, the idea of running custom Java code inside the database seems like an abuse of the database. How many people actually use this feature, and how many of them like it (as opposed to having made a bad technical decision 20 years ago)?

We used to bake potatoes in piles of grass from when my dad mowed the lawn. wrap your potato in tinfoil twice and bury it at the bottom of a large grass pile in the morning and come back at the end of the day. the grass gets so hot as it starts to breakdown. this is I think due to fermentation inside the grass mound and the insulation of the outer layers.

It might have been a day or so after the grass had been cut rather than that day.

I don't know how safe or clean it was, or how long it actually took to cook, or whether or not you _should_ do this, but we did, and it worked at least a few times

If there were any solid evidence, then the program would be unable to continue, because -in large part- the folks being blackmailed would have solid reason to distrust that the blackmailer would actually keep their secrets.

There is circumstantial evidence that the NSA is shady as shit. A few notable items:

1) The NSA coerced nearly every major and minor telco in the US to assist in their ongoing highly-illegal domestic wiretapping operations. (When this came to light, Congress retroactively immunized (from prosecution) those telcos that assisted the NSA in breaking the law.)

2) The Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper knowingly lied by omission before Congress about the scope and nature of NSA's domestic wiretapping operations.

3) The NSA's lawyers lied under oath to the US Supreme Court about the NSA's various domestic wiretapping operations.

In a similar way, there's no solid evidence that TSA was a combination jobs program, massive money-making program for then-VP Dick Cheney's business buddies and their pretty-useless microwave-imaging device company, and internal contraband-and-warrant checkpoint-establishment program. But when you compare the organization's stated goals with what it actually achieves, and how it responds to criticism at the difference between the two, it's pretty clear that its stated aims are substantially different from its actual aims.
But warming salmon to a temperature where bacteria grow best, and fastest, and then not heating it enough to kill bacteria, is not the same as raw salmon or cooked salmon.

Bacteria appear when preparing the meal. A salmon, uncut, is internally sorta safe, but once cut open, bacteria is introduced.

This is why you don't see cuts of salmon for sale, at room temp. You see cleaned salmon on ice, or in a fridge.
I pay 0 for either.
cooking under vacuum

I imagine if you tried to cook in an actual vacuum, you'd end up with dessicated food instead, as all the volatiles will evaporate.
It's not just convenience but if you swipe a set of four wheels it's much more obvious that they're missing just by looking at the car and now you need to go find a pawn shop that's going to take these four wheels and tires. Law enforcement has done a pretty good job of working with pawn shops to avoid this kind of stuff although it still does exist.

The catalytic converter is very quick to steal as long as the thieves have a brain and know what one looks like but most importantly if the car is just sitting in a driveway you can't tell anything has been done to it. Also metal recyclers traditionally haven't been looped in with law enforcement for this kind of thing and recyclers tend to be a lot more shady because there's less oversight. Once something's been recycled you can't really tell what it was before.

Most other parts on a car the melt value is almost nothing in relation to the effort it takes to get it. Catalytic converter the melt value is very very high in proportion.
(Note: I work for Red Hat)

I'm constantly amazed that people still don't understand why Red Hat makes money, and this article won't enlighten you as it doesn't understand it as well as being full of other incidental mistakes (like their description of CentOS is way off the mark).

Red Hat takes Linux and certifies it against all kinds of government, safety, privacy etc standardards, such as PCI and FIPS and numerous local ones. As a result if you are a government or many large companies you simply cannot download Linux and YOLO it. You are legally required to use the certified software so you take the path of least resistance and buy RHEL. That's it. It's why Red Hat makes piles of money, and Canonical or your SaaS does not. Understand what your big customers are required to have and provide it to them, even though it's boring and expensive to do.
His cookbook is actually quite good.
> This means that it doesn’t work perfectly and has too many false positives and false negatives. This is unfortunately unacceptable since I don’t want to ban legit blogs, and also want to properly remove spam blogs.

I hope more platforms take note of this. AI seems deceptively suited for spam/abuse detection. Unfortunately, I've yet to see a fully automated process that doesn't make mistakes in some cases. Nearly every case I've seen of a person's obviously erroneous removal from a platform has been the result of giving automated tools too much power.
I love the video game support, but I have concerns about the 'proper name' requirement for movies. It would require me to reorganize my entire library and lose a lot of information that other apps use. Also, the lack of subdirectories for organizing books is a limitation for those with large libraries. Overall, it seems like your app is targeted towards users with small, non-automated libraries, and the organizational requirements may prevent some people from using it

For elections, the test should be with the second digit, not the first.

See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benford's_law
> Benford's law has also been misapplied to claim election fraud. When applying the law to Joe Biden's election returns for Chicago, Milwaukee, and other localities in the 2020 United States presidential election, the distribution of the first digit did not follow Benford's law. The misapplication was a result of looking at data that was tightly bound in range, which violates the assumption inherent in Benford's law that the range of the data be large. The first digit test was applied to precinct-level data, but because precincts rarely receive more than a few thousand votes or fewer than several dozen, Benford's law cannot be expected to apply. According to Mebane, "It is widely understood that the first digits of precinct vote counts are not useful for trying to diagnose election frauds."

The other examples on this page used the second digit for their election analysis.
It's a weird cross between the two. Too fuzzy for programmers, too technical for common sense.

The actual title is “19 random digits is not enough to uniquely identify all human beings”.

The tl;dr is that you need at least 30 digits so it’s safe to assign a random number to a person with a close to zero probability of already being assigned.

I’m not really sure why the author is talking about 19 digits. Must be a reference to something I guess but I really don’t know what.

Also this doesn’t mention for how long this is valid for. New people keep getting born, so at some point 30 numbers won’t be enough unless we don’t care about reuse of the ones where people might be long gone.

I am not sure you read the article. For commissions to be relevant, the AI software would have to determine your commission and since it is intransparent it could decide to give some well performing employees less money because that motivates them to work harder as the AI has determined that this particular employee really needs the money for whatever reason.

How to migrate multiple static websites from GitHub pages to Codeberg
For years I've expressed my worries on HN and elsewhere that privacy and secrecy will almost be dead when surveillance hardware approaches the size and agility of insects. Hardware lookalikes in the form of say the ubiquitous cockroach or housefly will be very difficult to detect and probably won't be detectable until new technologies are developed to do so.

I don't believe I'm being alarmist when one sees the current state of the art, now think what it will be like in say 20 or 30 years from now:

Depending on where you are in the world, the salmon you eat raw isn't the same as the salmon you eat cooked. There are extra requirements around sashimi grade salmon such as flash freezing to kill parasites.

The risk profile is not the same as eating undercooked salmon that is not intended for raw consumption.
