Painfully naive.

WW2 was an existential war. The Allied powers had agreed that the only acceptable end to the war was unconditional surrender by the Axis. Combatants mobilized their entire societies to fight -- the US was spending about 40% of GDP on the military in 1945. The nuclear bomb had never been used before, so the nuclear taboo did not exist. Allied air forces had been pounding Axis population centers with conventional bombs for years, killing millions. The American invasion of Okinawa caused the deaths of approx 100,000 Japanese troops, 20,000 Americans, and 150,000 Okinawan civilians. American military planners thought that an invasion of the Japanese home islands would have similar casualty exchange ratios as Okinawa, which would leave hundreds of thousands of American troops dead, millions of Japanese troops dead, and millions of Japanese civilians dead.

There were scant alternatives to the bomb. The war had to end fast, the American people demanded nothing less. Wearing down the Japanese with continued strategic bombing, a naval blockade, and the Soviet invasion of Japanese held areas on the mainland would be slow, uncertain, and cause many more deaths than the atomic bombs did. The Japanese willingness to surrender is hotly debated, so all I'll say is this: the Americans had observed constant Japanese fanaticism over the course of the war. Japanese soldiers would pretend to surrender while they clutched grenades to their chests, the surrender of Japanese units larger than platoons was nearly unheard of, and the Japanese population was basically brainwashed. A common saying on the island was "victory, or a hundred million dead souls".

So given all that context -- existential war, lack of a nuclear taboo, normalization of strategic bombing, lack of belief in the Japanese will to surrender, and political pressure to end the war quickly -- dropping the bomb was inevitable. It was horrible, unfathomably cruel, and ended the innocent lives of blameless men, women, and children. It wasn't nice, fair, or honorable. But there was no better option, so we did it.

True and fair.
I'm on Linux (NixOS) and have zero trouble viewing PDF's. And coming from a former Mac user (for whom the PDF format was practically native to the OS), that says a LOT. "Evince" is Gnome's document/PDF viewer. It's a fine format that is broadly usable. I hit Spacebar, the PDF "quicklooks" (just like on macOS!) thanks to Gnome Sushi, it's great.

Here, if you're a Linux guy, here's a bash function to view sexed-up man pages as PDF's (requires evince):

pman() {
tmpfile=$(mktemp --suffix=.pdf /tmp/$1.XXXXXX)
man -Tpdf "$@" >> $tmpfile 2>/dev/null
evince $tmpfile
}
Yeah, this article reads more like a critique of the way ActivityPub and Mastodon work. None of this is particular to Meta.
So your argument against Meta app WhatsApp is "nah, she'll have Meta app Instagram, so we're cool"? :-)))
Long term, it's the teenagers who are really in play. The events that impact each generation as they transition into adulthood will impact their political views for the rest of their lives.
A related pet peeve of mine is when people use the subject/title/first-message as a useless statement of intention or a useless greeting, sometimes made very annoying by futile efforts to communicate urgency. For example, an email where the subject is “question”, a slack message that just says “hi” and absolutely nothing else, or a Reddit post who’s title is “[very urgent] hi I have a question pls help”. More often than not, the question is ill-informed, lacks any meaningful context, with the author either disappearing or frantically answering follow ups with “idk”.

If you’re going to request/demand someone’s time, at least do them the small courtesy of communicating clearly in the title/subject (for search and visibility), and be prepared to demonstrate that you put in effort. If they are unsure what question, they are free to ask what kind of question is appropriate or what might be a good way to think about a problem.

Uninformed queries or requests that demand the helper(s) to think on behalf of the asker are insulting to the helpers time and usually demonstrates willful ignorance and entitlement.
Dutch government adopting Mastodon is a notable step towards the Web of Nations.
The site has a public lands focus, and unfortunately most of our federal public lands are in the West :( That said, if you filter by "hiking", you can eliminate the parking lots (which are useful for roadtrips but not for enjoying the outdoors, obviously).

Also, check the other threads in this topic... you can typically camp in National Forest lands, like in Wayne National Forest an hour out of Columbus: https://www.fs.usda.gov/activity/wayne/recreation/camping-ca...

Or Ohio also has a bunch of state forests with camping: https://ohiodnr.gov/go-and-do/plan-a-visit/find-a-property/f...

Yes, packaging a software package for every Linux distro _is_ unfeasible, but have you ever used Linux? There are snaps, flatpaks, and AppImages, which can all run in any distro, and are generally more secure than "native" packages (for lack of a better word).

Why target one platform when your project can target all major platforms (web, iOS, Android, MacOS/Windows/Linux)? Especially if you're already experienced with React and can later hire from that monstrous talent pool?

Hell, instead of casting that wider net for users, you could still only release/focus on iOS, but still have tons of work done when you're ready to move your React app to those other platforms.

There is a separate counter for every memory object. One counter is only ever going to be touched by a single core at a time.

And even if there was a single counter, multithreading cannot make incrementing a counter faster. Two cores cannot write to the same cache line at the same time. Instead, cache lines need to bounce across cores when you write to them, and this takes such a long time that it turns the time it takes to roll over from centuries to millennia.

> Also, Windows ACLs come with an execute permission per user, group, or any other policy related object. It's enabled by default for executable files you're allowed to read, but there's absolutely nothing stopping you from making executables unexecutable.

That's the whole point that GP is raising: whether the execute bit is set by default, or not.

However personally I think the file itself should carry the information that it is meant to be executable (e.g. through a magic like shebang, an ELF/PE header, file extension, etc). Under UNIX-like OS's, it just creates pointless friction for users who are already certain that they do want to run the executable they just downloaded.

Quarantine is (at least conceptually) a better and more general mechanism than the execute permission, as files other than executables could also be considered dangerous (like an image file trying to pwn the decoder, or a local HTML file trying to access the network). The quarantine bit could tell the OS and/or application to highly distrust the content (e.g. run it in a sandbox that denies FS/network access).
The best way to handle it is to make a "minimum viable" account and do absolutely nothing with it, ever, except login and logout annually. Set up a spam filter to trash every single notice from the company.

Provide other data if you think that's wrong.
There are necessarily copies being made since it's converting a `char[]` to a `byte[]`, the problem is that they're not done correctly.

Currently the code tries to encode the chars, and if it fails it completely bails out and restarts with a code unit copy. The bailing and restarting is what offers the opportunity for TOCTOU.

But if instead of bailing it converted the data collected so far to code units, then appended the code unit on which it failed, then switched to a UTF16 copy loop, the result would necessarily be correct (at least insofar as a UTF16 string would not contain just latin1)

And in fact this would likely be more efficient than the current version, because we already know that everything we've already converted is valid latin-1, which means we can literally just copy that to every other byte. There is no need to re-do that validation and conversion work. Which is currently the case, because StringUTF16.toBytes redoes the entire thing from zero.
I think that will drive a lot more self-funded communities. People talk about how expensive it is to host websites, but they're talking about sites several orders of magnitude larger than what most communities need. A single Discord server could effectively be hosted on a Raspberry Pi, the market price among cloud hosts for which is "free", or at most ~$10 a month.

That's not "We need to charge for access" level pricing that's "One motivated party funds the entire site" level cost.
Isn't the exact concern here that people avoid Meta properties and for that reason chose Mastodon, but now Meta is sucking that data in?

To me that still seems fairplay on a platform that's designed to be open and heralded that way. Not a opinion I hold strongly though.
Confusing title for me. Oppenheimer is related to WW2, so I believed this was about Klaus Barbie [1] instead of the doll.

Hey HN!

Glad to have this reach the frontpage as 1Pass support has been unhelpful with this for months, so I‘m hoping to get some attention to this issue via this route.

My previous comment has already been quoted here, so I won‘t reiterate, but this issue is generally easy-to-fix, yet can have a huge impact if not working.

Very annoyed with 1Password’s product direction and support on this. Their customer focus has been off for a while in my eyes, sadly.
Yes, that's a good thing. Constantly navel gazing at the past is a bad thing.

Enough of this nonsense. Those who remember history are doomed to relive it. We're going to build the future, man, and it's going to be better, and we'll remember our past in our museums. The world matters. The present matters.

Even if you don't use Threads, when they eventually add ActivityPub support, Mastodon users' data will inevitably be harvested. Instance admins have been signing a pact[1] to defederate with Meta for this reason, in addition to the fact that they don't trust Meta to moderate their instance well enough for it to be safe to federate with.

I think it would have to be through ISO or similar, not the IETF. But I'm not sure.
As a concept I don’t think it’s any sillier than a “LEGO movie,” which was a huge hit with multiple sequels.

It’s all about execution, and the Barbie movie has a promising set of creative people involved.

By the same token, would as many people be excited about an Oppenheimer bio if it wasn’t Chris Nolan in the directors chair? Doubtful.

Neat! I used to use ShareMouse (pay-ware, if you want more than two machines tied together) for this, because setting it up and keeping it working are so easy compared to whatever version of Synergy existed at the time.

Synergy made me manually configure my monitors by dragging little boxes around in a window, would frequently refuse to connect, would spontaneously disconnect, and repeatedly mangled my config such that I had to keep manually configuring it over again.

With ShareMouse, it was "open a copy of it on each machine, slide mouse in direction of next machine, then optionally enable encryption (to prevent other users' instances of ShareMouse from being able to attach)".
> it's important to push smart people toward management to be able to keep scaling the company

nonsense.

Apple is a perfect counterexample of your assertion. (disclaimer: worked there for years with an excellent role and what you said was then countercultural, in our engineering world at least).
GPT version:

I don't understand why there are frequently numerous issues while working with frameworks like Laravel or other front-end technologies. Running `npm run build` consistently presents multiple problems that require constant troubleshooting. Why is it so challenging? Why can't front-end development be as straightforward as back-end? Who is responsible for this?

But.. something is definitely lost \o/
Just a heads up, we've added a 1 use free, as well as an email sign up as an alternative to google. If you end up testing, let me know what you think!
Floneum is still early in development, as it becomes more mature I plan to expand the documentation. In the meantime, you can always ask questions on the discord! Getting feedback about what is currently not clear in the documentation is always helpful

Currently, requests are limited to simple GET requests from Floneum to a endpoint. In the future I would like to support more methods that would make implementing this as a plugin possible. WASMtime is still in the process of implementing the stream API, which would make implementing this much easier.

I have little experience with mobile development; my primary target now is the desktop and I have a Google Pixel so I have not encountered such a problem. And I am using IntelliJ more than Android Studio though I had no problem with that yet either. It would be a shame if Android Studio were not the best platform for Android development.
> His companies have all been stupidly and impulsively managed

This is generally a true statement, and all of your criticism of his companies is accurate.

But what I find hilarious is that HN nearly universally carried his water until The Ukraine Tweet. This site was a unanimous Elon fanboy club right up until the moment he disagreed with CIA talking points.

Nothing changed about him, his behavior, or his companies. He's always engaged in some degree of charlatanism and he's always been a prolific shitposter on twitter dot com. HN ate it up.

Until that fateful day when he had the temerity to suggest that maybe NATO expansionism wasn't the best idea, and that we shouldn't risk nuclear war.

From that point forward, he became the HN enemy, and precisely the same comments that would have been flagged previously, were highly upvoted.

Funny how political tribalism still works amongst the 130 IQ crowd.
Not the OP, but Proton Pass is probably where I'd look. (And am in fact looking as I inch closer to ditching 1Password.)

I went to see "Past Lives" (highly recommend) and of all the previews Barbie and Oppenheimer were the two I resolved to see. On separate days, though, I can't imagine doubling these two up. Do people do this to save money?
Yeah, we would need editors and code review tools to not only follow overloads to their functions but also highlight that the operator is overloaded in the first place. Of course, this is quite a lot more work than just not overloading things in the first place (particularly since the benefit of operator overloading is negligible).
We don't really know.

Computers have been deflationary since their inception (you can get a better computer for the same money if you wait a year) but people will always value the present more then the future, that's why we've been buying computers regardless. The same principle could apply in theory to other asset classes, you want a house now even though you could get a better one in the future because you value comfort today rather then tomorrow. Spending isn't driven by inflation, it's driven by knowing we have limited time to live.
I'm dreading the day Gabe steps down and the company gets immediately sold to Microsoft.

Their regional pricing in Argentina is very generous. Most people here would be completely priced out of the industry if they didn't do this.

They had issues with abuse and they solved it requiring local addresses for payment methods instead of nuking us from orbit.

I don't know why they are doing this, a lot of companies have pulled out of country due to the fake dollar exchange rate thing.

And I'm wary of saying it's generous since it's a for profit company, but I don't know if our pricing is even worth the bandwidth, since a lot of them are like 1/10th.

We are really lucky Valve exists here, it's on a league of its own.

Lol, I know, I really struggled with "should I even mention it... they can already get pretty crowded..."

But at the end of the day people are going to find these sooner or later, and if people (especially technologists with resources and connections) can learn to love the outdoors more, maybe there will be a trickle-up effect for government and representatives to manage them more for recreational uses? One can hope.

I'd rather gently welcome people into the outdoors community and encourage best practices (LNT, etc.) than try to exclude them and make it all elitist. It's our public lands, after all.

Some of this is good advice, but I definitely wouldn't advocate embellishing your resume in this way. You're going to waste a lot of time on the phone with recruiters exploring roles you probably are not a good fit for. Also if I contact you because I'm looking for a FOO expert and you actually only read a blog post about FOO, you immediately lose credibility with me. Very low chance of it turning into a job.

IMO it's better ROI to get as specific as possible about the BAR role you are looking for and then put in the effort to do these things:

1) really workshop all the text on your resume / LinkedIn to make it clear you are seeking BAR opportunities

2) connect with people who are working on BAR or are BAR-adjacent

3) (if needed) think of easy things you can do to bolster your BAR credibility (small side projects, read a book on it, etc).

If you can do these things you automatically stand out because most people seem to lack introspection about what they want and also communicate poorly.

Doing this also will improve the ROI you get from your own network, because people will be able to more easily understand what you're looking for when thinking about the opportunities they know about.

Bottom line though: If I read over your profile, is it obvious you are actually good at X and seeking Y? It's amazing to me how many applications I see that communicate nothing about what the candidate has accomplished or would like to do next. A keyword spam resume is getting the circular file if it hits my desk.
