No it’s not and you should run away from whatever employer is leading you to believe this. They are trying to get you to believe it’s normal for when they stop paying your paycheck.
"Because this never happened, this is a persistent myth spouted by people like Putin to justify the rape and torture of Ukraine."

A "myth" recorded in Ukraine's laws by passing bills like 5670-d that effectively made the Russian language illegal in most aspects of public life. Doing so in a multi-ethnic nation in any other part of the world would have raised howls of fascism and anti-democracy by the US mass media and state dept and extensive condemnations in the UN. But hey, its Ukraine - a promised NATO partner - who cares about the folks affected ?
Most criticism comes with the implicit belief that the US has cleaned up its act since the terrible experiments of the Cold War era.

That's an intellectual fallacy it's easy to fall prey of: if most cultures and nations have committed heinous acts in their past, one should assume they are still doing terrible things to this day.

MK-ULTRA is dead, but history teaches that one day we'll learn of something even worse that's occurring right under our noses in 2023. It is disingenuous to criticise what the CIA and other three letter agencies have done, while not being totally opposed to their existence to this day. Who knows how they are experimenting with people on US soil, how they are fomenting revolts and financing drug lords in South America today.

Sadly, any such criticism can be easily waved away by calling it a conspiracy theory, which is how they keep operating with impunity. The only difference between an outlandish conspiracy theory and history are the existence of declassified government documents.

Except no one has been promoting that argument at all! You’re been tilting at windmills this whole time. The point is that green hydrogen is necessary to fill the gaps between availability of wind and solar. It is not the only solution, but not having it is impossible.

The problem is if these things are found and become public, it makes the targeted country really dislike the spying country. This creates a political pressure against aligning with the spying country.

Many Brazilians are deeply distrustful of the USA, and are even willing to align themselves with dictatorships. Personally, I'll never support a dictatorship. But many people will just to have an alternative world power pole.

Alliances are like friendships. If you spy one your friends, of course they are going to get mad and push you away. We have instead to make opt-in intelligence sharing programs with our allies.
I live in Großraum Nürnberg, which is more cosmopolitan than anywhere in the former East (aside, of course, from Berlin), and I'm stuck in the plateau of speaking German well enough to get the Ausländeramt (excuse me, Auslanderbehörde) to grant me a Niederlassungserlaubnis (permanent residence permit), and to maintain good relations with my in-laws, but not what could be called "verhandlungssicher" (capable of negotiations or other serious business discussions), and that has put a definite ceiling on my career possibilities - I'm sought after as an individual contributor, but I will never be in management unless I manage to kick my German use up a couple of levels.

Germany is a prime destination for ambitious young people from Spain, Portugal and Greece, many of whom are willing to put forth the effort to learn German well enough to be successful here, but get their feet in the door with English.

Spain, Portugal and Greece are prime destinations for Germans on vacation, and the more intellectually ambitious will attempt to learn enough of the local languages to be polite, but there are enough not intellectually-ambitious Germans with sufficient money to travel that menus and hotel room info are often offered in German, along with the ubiquitous English.

TL;DR: There's a bit of an economic hierarchy going on that makes the language situation for Germans different from that of the Spanish, Greeks and Portuguese.
I am a German who lives in Australia. Australia handles immigrants far, far better than Germany, and I feel like that is reflected in these school outcomes.

In my kids' school, about 80% of kids' parents don't speak that much English. The school and the child nurse told us, 'don't worry about English, they'll learn that here at school, focus on their native tongues'. I don't think that's isolated to Australia, which is far more multi-cultural than Germany in many regards (government infrastructure, city-life,

Yet Australia scored 11th in the same test: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/may/16/victo...

I don't think scrapping English in primary school will change anything, that's just grasping at straws. You'd have to change how the entire society works: get rid of a weirdly stratified school system, support immigrants far better (have government staff who actually speak English, for a start...), get rid of the class-heavy barriers in peoples' heads, too much to do.

Germany is on spot 21, by the way - took me far too long to find that information. https://pirls2021.org/results/achievement/ click on 'Download Section' for a PDF with the ranking. Looking at the range of reading skills (those barcharts on the right), Germany isn't actually doing that bad.

Quantum CA (brand, not operator)/HiCA still can't issue certs for domains they don't "control" by having RCE on the systems they point to.

all CA requirements for validation still need to be fulfilled for issued certificates, as ssl.com, the Quantum CA operator, which exclusively holds the private keys, is a "proper" CA.

this does not affect the trust in the CA infrastructure or ssl.com itself; while this is morally questionable to keep the business relationship, it does not mean the CA is not following the signing requirements.

Shitty gradient descent was enough to take over the world already.

Afaik they weren't even applying BSL4 security to their coronavirus research. On top of that, before the outbreak, the Pasteur institute, who was incidentally supposed to be a research partner but was kept at arms' length, raised an alarm on their apparent general lack of safety compliance.

That and the fact that the Chinese dicatorship blocking any inquiry into the matter are enough to put the blame on that lab until proven otherwise.
However, sometimes programmers forget to remove the debug symbols from the final binaries of the game. Programmers are humans, and humans make mistakes.

Delivering software with debug symbols - wether commercial or non-profit - isn’t a mistake. It is a decision for better bug reports, traces and convenience.

Executables/libraries on disk file size will increase with debug symbols. The kernel and loader will look at binary headers and load only what is needed for execution into main-memory. Kernel and loader will not load the debug symbols at runtime, they are useless for them. The debugger will look also at the headers and use them to load the debug symbols, which are need for backtraces.
Therefore initial file read from disk will take a little more time but the execution is not affected. Startup speed is usually influenced by loading of further resources, initialization and checks. So you will get a lot for some bytes on the disk.

interesting how many of those names have commercial property investments. direct or indirect.

Right, and in my company that is a manager. An engineer who is good at leading through influence. I am confused as to what other kind of management there is. I guess there is people management, hiring and firing kind of things, but I think that is not what we are talking about on HN.

"migrant background" in German political discourse is mostly defined as "at least one parent was not born with German citizenship". That is incredibly broad and covers both children of Syrian refugees who arrived last year, as well as children of a English-German couple or the children of a third-generation Turkish immigrant who has retained his Turkish citizenship but has lived in Germany his whole life. For the sake of this debate (how many children have adequate knowledge of the German language) it is essentially meaningless.
It isn't necessarily a money issue. Here in France we also got rid of classes with different levels in favor of a "one size fits all approach", for ideological reasons. As such a school can have 3 teachers, but they'll all teach the same thing, rather than having one teach a slightly more advanced curriculum, and one teach a slightly simpler one.

The end result is actually pretty bad. The more advance kids are bored, the ones who need a bit more help are completely lost, and only those who happen to be exactly in the middle actually get something.

The original idea was to level social distinctions, but in practice it just broke the school system and in doing so increased inequality.
Germany likes to blame immigration for the underachievement of its school system, but the reality is that it's an extremely outdated system that is absolutely not prepared for the modern world. While in Scandinavian countries - with similar levels of immigration - children are not only learning English but also programming and other innovative subjects, German teachers come up with obviously short-sighted policies such as these.
Many years ago, when LTO-7 was new and state-of-the-art, I have bought a new tabletop tape drive (Quantum) for $3000, which is less than an Apple HMD, but much more useful for me.

After writing several hundred TB, I have achieved a decent money saving in comparison with using HDDs.

On the other hand, when someone needs to store only 100 TB or less, there is no chance to recover the cost of the tape drive, so tapes are inappropriate for such a case.
there are no cross in public schools, only private catholic ones.
Enforcement is the bigger problem, I think.
Capitalist philosophy is about maximizing profit and minimizing expenditures. One is led to believe that the end result is a flourishing competitive environment but, in reality, the best way to achieve the above is to collude with your "competitors". Better yet, create your own competition, and then "compete" against them.
The whole point of decentralization is to build many redundant points of equal size.

If you just put all the effort into one single node, you’ve essentially destroyed the idea of decentralization.
There is a huge hype machine on the internet where people want to believe there there are crazy high salaries in other companies. Even though they don't know anyone who works there, interviewed or otherwise even bothered to look into some actual evedence. I have had interviews with citadel and know people whose have roles with that title. Total comp is slightly below what a comparable person would make at Google or Facebook. There are a few rainmakers there but those people get everything in (cash) bonus. Many are getting a base that was set 5-10 years ago.
the tl;dr is that the citation is largely useless and relies on trust.

Yeah, I’m not referring to useful ones being actively used for towing. I’m referring to people that leave them in while driving around not towing anything. Some are designed to extend upward as well with no practical towing purpose. Look up pictures of collisions after someone has a tow hitch in and you’ll see what I mean.
Renegotiating contracts isn’t an abnormal thing. I’ve seen it 1000 times in the industry I work in. But just refusing to pay your existing bills is someone only a real prick does. You do this in the construction industry and you will be blackballed so hard.

For what it’s worth, instead of googling random code structures or coking up with small functions, I just use chatgpt since I can prompt it for exactly what I want.

It may not be inaccurate to characterize wget or curl as tools that could be used to perform nefarious acts of hacking. After all, the command-line options offer wide latitude to twiddle parameters and craft requests far beyond the type that would pass a browser's sanity checks. In fact, I could see where you could make the same argument about popping open the Developer Tools console in a browser.

Plenty of people use wget in a mundane fashion where they may want to automate or test stuff that is in no way illicit hacking, but likewise, malicious threat actors can have a field day with it. It's essentially a morally neutral tool with possibilities.
Electric cars are going to be an ecological disaster in hindsight.

Hundreds of kilos of lithium per car ending up in the water table per improperly processed end of life vehicle. Periodic burning down of entire boats transporting them across the oceans. Occasional burning down of houses with integrated garages.

They've been a really effective way to persuade a lot of people to get rid of the car they already have, the environmental cost of constructing it already spent, and get a new one instead with a whole new cost. Just after we've got the old school petrol systems running reasonably cleanly too.

That's nowhere near the current consensus. I think it'll be really obvious in about a decade.

Ironic that this website is so awful; can't remember seeing a page that has links that are indistinguishable from regular text.
Sure, the point of my article is to build upon the Reuters article to provide some concrete domains/archives links, add new sites to the existing Reuters list, and explain the technical details used to obtain them.

With a bit of reverse engineering, I'm sure we'd be able to get a mockup of the JavaScript ones running however: https://cirosantilli.com/cia-2010-covert-communication-websi... But in the end, it's just going to be some kind of "click something, a box opens, you type, it encrypts and sends a POST request.".

The main interest of reverse engineering to me would be to possibly find some searchable fingerprint that we could use to find more of the websites.

Unfortunately with your nasty comments nobody will listen to your position. It is also not as straightforward as you make it out to be. I know in your mind you think it is but especially when you take it to a global stage, the issue becomes quite complex.
In their defense they implied that the award was tiny, and that the award was for tiny websites… there was no implication that their own website was (or need be) tiny.

That’s notwithstanding the fact that tiny in scope != tiny in size.
It's not binary, there are many values between 0 and 1, but the current state of the society is too nonsensical and not durable, so every level need to act, to respect the environment, you can't do that from inside a 2 tonnes car or flying to another country
Great game. Not terribly stable but a fun take on the Civ genre.
Fortunately we stopped increasing the number of kids in the world back around 2000. On a global scale it’s a solved problem (still pockets of the world where work continues and is important). The problem now is, how do we live more efficiently? I.e. within the means of the environment. And relatedly how to figure out proper distribution of stuff.
Maybe also interesting/important in this context: Schools have only very limited ways to do their own hiring. Teachers are usually allocated by state government administrations. This tends to be a bureaucratic and drawn-out process. Normal teaching positions usually require a few months to fill under ideal conditions, positions for principals/vice principals can take more than a year, even if a candidate is available. Our primary school has been without a principal for a year now and while the vice-principal has been confirmed to take over the position, it will take a few months more to make that official. And only then the position of vice-principal will be recruited. Most likely, the school will be without a full administrative team for two years or more when all is said and done.
I disagree with this characterization. It’s not that reading Mein Kampf would brainwash you, it’s that reading it for it’s “nuggets of wisdom” is an insane, dangerous thing to do. I sorta thought that part would be uncontroversial but who knows
The current zeitgeist is extremely anti-human and anti-technology. You see this in comments like "we don't need more children, having children is selfish", when much of the developed world is already way below replacement rate, sometimes as low as 1-1.3. What they're saying is of course that _other_ people shouldn't exist but they should be allowed to remain and enjoy the now pristine nature. Global warming (which is very real) is used merely as a tool to further these ideas. They're the new Malthusians.
For quite a while there was a lot of concern the Li-on batteries in these cars wouldn't last more than a few years (3000 cycles) and that battery replacements would become really common. However so far the batteries have outperformed those estimates by quite some margin and have tended to last as long as the cars do and there is a growing second hand market for the used batteries in power storage where the top charge/discharge/capacity performance of the batteries is less important and their price is good.

There are now a few companies either ripping them apart and building powerwalls for residential uses from them and a commercial company that is simply racking old tesla batteries for grid storage. There is quite a lot of demand for cheap power storage and just because 20% capacity has been lost hasn't made them useless and most of these uses don't need 1C charge/discharge.

Solar and Wind is now a lot cheaper than using fossil fuels and its taking over at an increasing rate and a lot of the charging of EVs happens overnight too. Power needs are otherwise at their minimum overnight and this usually means less carbon dense sources as peak power tends to be the dirtiest.
