This is my thinking exactly. If you put exploit code in there in day one, you are likely to be found out quickly. But if you wait until you detect a valuable target, test the waters with a non-malicious update, then you can probably distribute the malicious update to run in a targeted fashion, perhaps even rolling it back shortly after to reduce later forensic investigation.

We need to stop treating our dev tools like they are trusted. They are not, and they rely more and more on networks of even less trustworthy code. That VSCOde doesn’t have a proper sandbox or TCB for its plugins is pretty damning.

I don't know; it seems like DeSantis and his ilk are pretty happy to just directly go after gay people under the guise of calling them "groomers". I mentioned this here a few weeks ago, but part of the reason that my wife and I have dismissed the idea of moving to Florida (despite us both having family there) is because she's planning on becoming a biology teacher, and the broad and idiotic "don't say gay" law in Florida is likely to make our lives extremely unpleasant if she taught there.

Have you tried going back to the theory of Flow, and the conditions for it to happen, and compare&contrast your current situation with earlier ones?

I suppose that the differences might be subtle. For one example, for the condition that you have a sense of doing a good job, your metric for good job might have changed: it might no longer be simply make an algorithm to do X, but include larger context, including the reason X is being done.

BTW, keeping in mind that techbro ageism is a thing, especially in YC-type circles (that's how YC started), I suppose that HN comments by over-30 people can be fodder for confirmation bias by 20yos.
Ketamine depression treatment doesn’t have to induce a “trip” to elicit the effect, according to studies and the protocol.

It can produce some sensory distortions, but anyone who is going into a full “k hole” is almost certainly taking too much. It’s not a case of more is better.
To extend the strained analogy, they do let you finish the month (of printing pages). The complaint here is more “my keycard barcode is still legible, but it stopped working at the end of the month”.
Anything that puts you under and also inhibits REM sleep, can have effects against depression. REM sleep is important for memory consolidation, and consolidation of memory is linked to depression in that the reliving and reconsolidation of painful memories is thought to be involved in at least some types of depression.

This is why sleep deprivation can have an acute antidepressive effect, and also why cannabis can have a similar shorter effect in some cases. Usually when there's no tolerance.

I think it's quite possible indeed that something similar happened during this study.

I am aware of that; I like it that way. I like long term stability and large bags of money without stress.

The capitalising and ‘faster’ and hurry and stress you speak off is nice if you want bankrupt-or-unicorn. We don’t need to be market leader or whatever; we need to have stability decade after decade and we do. I like profit of millions$/year and small teams, not some breakneck VC funded fast growing all-or-bust stuff. Each their own of course.
Note that you are wrong on zero Judicial oversight...as it has originally been reviewed by the courts numerous times.

The cost of the subscription should (And I'm sure does--more than) cover the cost of the ink you receive. It's not the same as your Netflix analogy at all, because there's only a finite amount of ink you'll receive, and HP knows exactly how much it is, and sets the price of the subscription accordingly.
The BGG rankings are a particular viewpoint into a general take on board games; the way I look at it - anything high ranked is going to be "good" even if I don't particular like the play style, theme, or execution. Many are "good but not for me".

The problem with the rankings is that some very playable games are ranked low. It's a meme on BGG but CandyLand is famously shit on: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/5048/candy-land - but it's a perfectly acceptable "game" for very young children, and if you've ever dealt with said children you know that getting them to successfully complete a CandyLand session without going backwards on the track, randomly wandering off, taking multiple cards, etc is a serious feat.

It's not a great game but it's certainly still playable in the niche it occupies.
> You think "A theme shouldn't require file storage access" and then spend an hour looking up why it does and find out there is actually some strange but totally legitimate reason for it

No. You think it is suspicious and install another theme that doesn't request anything.
I gravitate towards startups for this reason. In my experience with big orgs, everything takes forever and involves 20+ people. Often, still nothing really gets done. At startups, I or someone sitting virtually next to me is the one creating the initial integrations, accounts or credentials. Similarly, I am compelled by the MVP and the express lane it demands. I loathe red tape and process for the sake of process—and it's most evident as a new-hire, watching others scramble to onboard you, only to keep hitting corporate walls.

While I don't think as a blanket rule a new hire should push prod code on day or week one—they should be able to without being ham-stringed by needless bureaucracy that has nothing to do with security or engineering. (IMO)
I think that's an unnecessary display of gravitas? ;-)

Dirty Coding Tricks Used in Production Video Games
At work, we needed a config file for some employees to sit alongside a custom (non-web) script I wrote. These employees have zero technical knowledge (like, they wouldn't know basic HTML), and I found TOML to be pretty easy for them to understand. It looks like this:

# config.toml

[[podcasts]]
title="Podcast 1"
export_label="Label 1"

[[podcasts]]
title="Podcast 2"
export_label="Label 2"

It's flat for them, but gives me a nice `$podcasts` array of nested objects to work with and they don't need to worry about curly braces, indenting, etc. They can just copy/paste three lines if they need to "add" a new one.

Of course, my use case is pretty simple and these are simple string values, but I found it pretty nice.
I'm having a hard time seeing Swift becoming a well-respected and easily considered language for your next project. The sheer lack of anything outside of what Apple has made already makes it a non starter. In comparison, .Net is absolutely amazing.
I don't remember Cicero or Virgil agitating for the paving of roads in the 1800s and 1900s. Do you have any citations of their speeches on the topic?

(What the Romans did in 1 AD is irrelevant to what municipalities did in 1901 AD.)
Volunteers don't run the servers, they don't handle donation processing for small donors or sweet talk the egos of large donors, they don't respond to lawsuits from people upset about how they are portrayed on Wikipedia. Then all those employees need HR, IT, janitors, etc., and then there are executives who run the organization.

If you were a regular Wikipedia editor, you'd know there is a ton of resistance among volunteers to directly paying volunteers to contribute. It gets proposed every now and then, but the consensus is that this would short-circuit the motivation and lead to a bunch of people currently on Mechanical Turk flooding in to try and make a bunch of edits to get paid. If you saw what happened with Hacktoberfest offering free tshirts to make PRs to popular open source projects, you'd be worried about that too.

And a lot of the money goes directly to volunteer-directed projects, like meetups. See https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Start

“I’m sorry” - Most managers I know when finding out I was promoted from IC to manager

Obviously delivered tongue in cheek, but it’s a hard job and it’s not for everyone. I second everything the parent says and also add that your timescales are different. If you think waiting for a build is long, try waiting for your efforts to improve a directs’ communication skills to take hold. generally the most important, and the most fun, work of being manager takes years for feedback instead of hours.

And did you see the full video of the Patriot blowing two full loads before getting taken out in Kiev by Kinzhals (2:14 hit)?:

Kotlin/Native deploys and works on iOS, but due to Apple holding back on opening up Swift, it has to do everything through ObjC interop. But make no mistake, to Apple, that's a feature: if other languages have a hard time integrating in their ecosystem, they'll go away.
I'll think about a better approach of monetizing the app. I always struggle when trying to choose what should be behind an in-app purchase. In this case I just picked the least restrictive option of what the popular competitor apps do (you can still use the dark mode, but it gets switched back when the session ends). Judging from the feedback on these apps I assumed that people are fine with it.

> ‘Don’t you think it’s going to be hard for you‘

I found this curious when reading the article and expected more context as to why this was racist. Why did Gebru consider this was due to her race or immigrant status? I got this comment through my whole life too even though I don’t share Gebru’s background or demographic factors. Were my teachers racist? Or were they concerned? Or was the subject just really hard? Or were they classist against my poverty?

It seems more info is needed and attributing this to racism (or sexism or xenophobia) seems like an unsupported conclusion. Although it seems Gebru felt it was racist and significant enough to mention in the background for this article.

I think this is what makes measuring micro aggressions so difficult. It’s rare to confirm the intent of the person who did something that is perceived as micro aggressions but the recipient feels and infers an intent.

I don’t know how to fix this but I want to.

I remember once remarking to a coworker that they had a nice car. It was a new 7-series and looked really nice. I thought nothing of it as it was just small talk and I frequently make such small comments to note something positive.

A few months later we were having a large zoom call after the George Floyd murder where people were recounting persistent and systematic racism. My coworker shared an example of what he called everyday racism when someone said he had a nice car and he assumed it was because he was black and couldn’t afford such a nice car. He seemed really hurt and spoke for 5 minutes about it and how he worked really hard to afford the car and his spouse had a high income as well. He didn’t name me as the person who made the comment but it sounded like my small comment.

I was so confused as to how all that could be inferred from “nice car.” I don’t know him well enough to ask about it and clear it up. I felt bad he was hurt, even though I just intended it as a small comment recognizing a nice car from a coworker and would have made the comment regardless of his race. So I don’t think I did anything wrong but still feel bad. And there’s no way I could predict such a response.

I don’t compliment coworkers cars any longer.
> The biggest problem with inkjet is clogged nozzles from dried ink

My almost a decade old HP Deskjet 4515 Ink advantage is extremely resilient against cartridge clogs. In standard mode, its printing pattern tolerates clogged lines so well, so that you can't see any print quality degradation unless you get a "print quality report".

Moreover, a couple of cleaning runs unclogs all the nozzles 99% of the time, even after 6 months of hiatus.

I never replaced a cartridge because of a clog since I bought that thing. It also routinely underestimates cartridge life. Currently it claims the black cartridge is empty, but it's printing with the quality of a new cartridge.

None of my HP Printers (4515, 5150, 500C and another entry level AIO) never let me down in the cartridge department, even after long idle periods. That entry level AIO just worn out internally, I gave others away because I was upgrading. 4515 is my current workhorse.

The only printer which had cartridge clogging problems was my Canon BJC4300. That thing made me decide to buy nothing but HP only.

Why can’t a user reply in any of these HN apps?
Unfortunately while 192.168.100.1 as a diagnostic web interface was reliable for many years, more recently a lot of cable companies have been locking down even these read-only interfaces preventing users from accessing useful data about signal strength.

A few years ago I had a similar problem with Armstrong Cable in NE Ohio and went through a similar process that involved multiple unhelpful tech visits eventually culminating in me writing a scraper to read the diagnostic page and collect SNR/Tx power/BER stats per channel plus some investigation with a SDR to prove that the two channels having severe problems overlapped with one of the frequencies used by a nearby AT&T tower, and that I never had problems when I wasn't attached to one of those channels.

After all that they did some kind of RF leakage test and found that chipmunks had been chewing on the RG6 line from the street so that got replaced with the big thick orange cable and all was well for the rest of the time I lived there.

About three months later they pushed an update to their modems that changed the seed used for generating the random password that "protects" the advanced diagnostics page from the default so neither I nor anyone else on their network could access it anymore without inside information.

They went out of their way to take objectively useful diagnostic information away from us. A pure evil move, but of course one they could do with impunity because most of Armstrong's service area their only competition is Frontier's ex-Verizon DSL which was hot garbage 20 years ago and has only deteriorated since then. No one who would ever care about that feature is going to change providers over it going away, the sad state of the US broadband market means they have no real choice.
"structs are functions that preserve the stack frame" is a cute idea/perspective. It doesn't look like this view leads to anything distinguishable from the usual approach with constructors though. Any examples that might point out things you can do that you can't do with usual struct+constructor?
I second this recommendation, but note that this book predates and does not cover HTTP3/QUIC.
Doing everything in their power here is to do nothing, so that's quite easy. My guess is push from above to be as lax as possible, so that companies choose to stay in Ireland vs other EU countries. Or the funding to the data protection agency is intentionally nerfed to keep them from being able to actually do anything.

If I did drug trials for pain killers this way, would it give any useful data?

Depression and pain are subjective. Personally, I think removing the subjectivity from the trial voids the trial. It is a clever design, but it really just proves the benefit is in the experience and not the physical mechanism.

This might be true if what you want is to emulate the experience under actual psychedelic drugs; I do not think that this is necessary if your only aim is to create _transformative_ or _healing_ experiences.

One of the core concepts of Rob Burbea I mentionned above is the idea of "imaginal middle way", which, in short, consists in seeing mental images as "neither real nor not real", "simultanously discovered and created". Going deeper into that topic would require way too much text and time for a simple comment here, but I can tell from experience that this way to engage with imaginative faculties can have deep and long lasting effects. And the important aspect here is that, while engaging with the image, one is constantly balancing between reification (considereing the image, for instance of a divinity, as having independent reality) and disdain (considering the image as "just made up").
That's understandable I guess, however I wouldn't say it is clear. Especially should the purchaser be someone not tech orientated.
> if you vote Republican in 2024, you vote erasure. You vote oppression. You vote fascism

As a registered independent who finds both major parties unconscionable, this line of argument worries me. Frankly, members of both parties can ascribe the worst possible motives to those who vote for the opposition, precisely because both parties are a massive tangle of complex social, economic, political, and administrative issues, not necessarily all consistent with each other, and very often only invoked when it's politically convenient.

I'm not trying to engage in false equivalence here, because it is absolutely possible for one party to be worse than the other. But what I'm saying is that ascribing the worst possible motives to those who don't vote like you is only going to inflame our already polarized political discourse, and my great fear is that if the flames are fanned enough, we're going to end up how Rwanda ended up when the hatred between the Hutus and Tutsis boiled over.

Yes. In both cases, you were paying for a recurring delivery of a physical product, and the question is when you stop paying for new ones, should the seller be able to keep you from getting any value from the old ones too?
