Maybe. But where, exactly, are all those fat-fingered users with access to sensitive military information? At contractors?

Idea: Have one of the Creeps-R-Us departments or 3-letter agencies do uber-basic monitoring of emails sent from ~all government & contractor email servers for users having access to sensitive information. With a bit of common sense and an intern bright enough to write Perl scripts, they might notice all sorts of security problems. As is - it sounds like Sgt. McSpy could be sending whatever he wants to info@fsb.ru, and the US Govt. would never notice.
Everything from pipes to power lines also have a finite lifespan, and many cities are succumbing to crumbling infrastructure as the low density suburban tax base isn't covering their costs, and is unsustainable in the long term.

Yes it costs a lot in absolute terms to rip up and expand a sewer lines in Manhattan, but that doesn't mean it costs more per person being served by that infrastructure.
"climate change" is a weasel term. They need absolute definitions of the changes coming or people can't take their claims seriously.

[edit to explain myself: the above was meant to critize the parent for using the same non-logic that the climate denier movement uses: requiring an impossily high standard of evidence)
Sure, I suppose. I've never been called a sockpuppet before so I'm simultaneously insulted but also...honored in an odd way?

Anyway, I'm not sure what else you'd have me do here. We all have to start somewhere. I put my thoughts out there under something I directly control and I'd rather people focus on the central thesis of the thoughts being proposed over resorting to personal attacks.

I'll continue posting small essays on relevant topics under the domain.

Correction: The founders sold it to Zuckerberg for billions of dollars.

Saying he “took it from them” is outright dishonest.
“Hidden” from whom and how? “Same fields in beginning” doesn’t characterize multiple inheritance. “Tagged structs” are just one implementation strategy for one kind of polymorphism, and “tagged” and “struct” are themselves jargon. Using and knowing the precise terminology is important when communicating technical concepts.
I know it can be automated even more, but in my situation it's just not practical even having to release to a lot of (disconnected) machines.
All three physical buttons, at that. My work laptop has a trackpoint and the right/left click buttons, but it's missing the middle button that lets you scroll with the trackpoint. The same button works as a middle-click for pasting the second text buffer in Linux, which is nice to be able to rely on when transitioning between terminal and web windows.
The same comment could be made for the majority of articles on HN. Maybe look up the words you don't know, and learn something new.

More like Logo and Lisp. Of course, Logo is also a Lisp.

Red is based on Rebol, which was created by Carl Sassenrath, the creator of the pre-emptive multi-tasking Amiga OS. When he left Commodore, he wrote Amiga Logo and the created Rebol.

I mean, this isn't wrong. At the same time, it took a long time for studies to show that ulcers are not just reactions to stress. Study after study for many years showed the opposite. This isn't even getting into the problems of studies with nutrition, in general.

That said, I should be clear that I'm not pushing for learning some of these "brain games" for their own sake. I am more throwing out that equivalent of the Tyler Durden quote regarding chickens. :D

I don't know if it's Apple (all the time). However, I can confirm this is happening.

I've had my settings updated via remote access. In my case it appears a non-Apple company/person was successfully overriding my settings, primarily by exploiting WebKit vulnerabilities. Sometimes I could see it, and sometimes I could not (e.g., I received a notification and/or I saw the setting change vs. blind override without any toggling/notification but logs showed it).

In my case I filed a report with Apple, on multiple occasions. I also made lots of copies of that data, and stored in different places (i.e., 3-2-1).

I strongly recommend the book referenced in the article.

IARC, the organization that produced this mess is doing science communication a massive disservice and it should be reformed. They call category 2B "possibly carcinogenic" when in reality the evidence required for category 2B is basically anything that is as flimsy and hypothetical as possible. No one would refer to anything in category 2B as "possibly carcinogenic" in daily life. At best you might say this category is "worthy of potential future study".

Their poor communication creates hype and hysteria while discrediting scientists everywhere.

A few years ago they said "Radiofrequency electromagnetic fields are
possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B)." https://publications.iarc.fr/126

The reasoning for this is on page 419. They classified radio as possibly carcinogenic because prior studies weren't as well controlled as they wanted, some analyses they wanted weren't done, and because one very small study that saw a minor correlation that isn't at all consistent with the population level data that we have (which says there's no association).

That's it. All of this hype for absolutely nothing.

IARC needs to be fixed.

> What I learned about being an IC is to have some empathy for management

As a manager of managers, I frequently tell them that one sign their job is going well is when they're able to go away for vacation and it's almost like they never left, but if they left for a couple months, we'd start to see the cracks form. Managing is the challenge of having genuine empathy for your team, holding them accountable for the things they should be accountable for, and eating s*t for the stuff they shouldn't be. When you're managing in a good environment, there's not much of latter.
I think in theory you can write code (or do some tricks) to avoid all heap allocation.
The same reason the EU does, among many other organizations and companies. It's a backup and alternative, not too much work to run if it's only for people on the inside, and cross-posting is as simple as checking a box in a growing number of social media management tools.
Some things that I'd like:

Either 100% USB-C, or include a USB-A port. I'm really sick of laptops containing ports that I'll never use, but needing to STILL carry around an adaptor. I don't see how anyone can justify getting rid of USB-A (which everyone needs,) while still keeping things like 3.5mm headphone jacks, SD Card readers, HDMI... Just go USB-C only (and make everyone carry an adaptor) or include a USB-A port with the plethora of ports that I'll never use.

I really want to bring back 17" laptops. I know this is a niche market, but I really miss my old 2007 MBP's wiiiiide screen. I don't mind the weight and the size; and there's plenty of smaller laptops on the market for everyone else.
Wood dust is absolutely not something to mess with. Chips - what most people think of as "sawdust" - aren't the scary part. The scary part is the too-small-to-see stuff that has a physical structure remarkably similar to a number of things that are extremely Not Good To Breathe.

Also, as a sibling notes, the stuff (chips and dust alike) can contribute to some really memorable conflagratory experiences.
> If you have embedded software in the field and it is running on hardware that has not reached its EOL, then you absolutely should be fixing bugs and vulnerabilities, doubly so when that hardware is attached to any kind of network, and triply so when the software talks to some kind of cloud services.

Talk to Qualcomm and NXP and MediaTek and Broadcom and STMicroelectronics and....

Seriously, most of this is completely out of the product engineers' control. We can't update the hardware because our vendors (ALL of our vendors) control the kernel selection, almost never upstream, and never keep the board support packages up to date. Never.

IME the only exceptions to that rule are RaspberryPi (kinda sorta), AMD, and Intel. I only recently managed to finally extricate all my projects from Linux 2.6 which I considered a minor miracle. In 2023.

Would anyone be able & kind enough to explain what sort of testing could go from a sample of eight vehicles to a result of "more than 99.9%"?

Does that mean they tested 1000 ways of hacking (or 125 ways on each of 8 cars) and found 0 of them were successful? Or...

Back then there were fewer browser in the common scope of awareness.

My 60 year old dad installed brave long before we ever discussed the browser, and he's darn near tech illiterate.

Same with several other browsers and other family members.

I would hazard a guess that it's simply due to greater variety in total, with chrome/chromium never represented due to dev choices.
It's not a committee, it's not arbitrary, and "arbitrary" and "subjective" mean two very different things.

Reliability from a fact-checking perspective is a pretty specific thing, and a thing that is vital to Wikipedia as an open-source, anyone-can-edit encyclopedia. This can correlate with political views in particular times and places, but does not broadly correlate with either left or right. E.g., after the Russian revolution, we saw the left using Pravda as a vehicle to "indoctrinate" and "encourage unity of thought". [1] But a significant part of the current US right has frequently taken the approach of "flooding the zone with shit" [2].

Doesn't matter if the manufacturer provides updates for embedded software if the customer doesn't want to install those updates because they'd have to incur the cost and downtime of retesting and updating their upstream software to address any incompatibilities caused by those fixes. It's more common than you'd think.
That's the wireless implementation.

I've designed non-trivial mechanical components in Solidworks on an Intel Macbook using the trackpad. Arrow keys to spin the model. Having a mouse is better but the trackpad is much better than using a mouse on a poor surface while mobile.
I wired the cigarette lighter socket in my old MR-2 so that, if the lighter wasn't pushed in, the fuel pump would work for the first half mile. Then, the gas gauge would go to zero and the car would stall. Bonus: I kept a second cigarette lighter in the car with its heater removed, so I could leave it in the socket and there's no way to disable it (unless you brought your own cigarette lighter).

Of course, my system was just a bit flaky, and time and again I'd be on the highway, desperately pumping the lighter trying to keep the car going. I ended up yanking the whole shebang.

Same car had an alarm system, which over the years got triggered several dozen times by yours truly. The one time someone else triggered it by bumping my car, I came outside and thanked them.
At least THIRTY NINE THOUSAND people suffered from a cancer that would have been avoided if the execs, who knew about the dangerousness of their product, stopped selling their contaminated crap. We're talking about TENS OF THOUSANDS of shattered lives, children who ended up growing without a mother, and women not able to bear children because the cancer destroyed their body.

This is what's “insane”.

That's probably true, but tangential to the absurd point made above.

There is almost zero reason to include robust locks or immobilizers on military vehicles. They're either occupied by soldiers with guns. Or in a locked facility, guarded by soldiers with guns. Or abandoned on the battlefield (in which case, they should be scuttled, but shit happens and sometimes you need to GTFO ASAP).
Wikipedia only asks for money from its users. I promise that if you had used WeWork, they would also have asked you for money eventually. They're bad at business, but not that bad.
Rome is notable for having kind of not great subway infrastructure for a major European city because, among other problems, they tend to encounter a lot of archeological stuff whenever they dig there.

And I'm not even talking about major cities. Where I lived in Padova, it has approximately 200K people in the same area that about 100K people occupy here in Bend, Oregon. Padova has way better transit than Bend does even if Bend is much more well to do in many ways.
Elevated/buried pedestrian walkways make walking harder for a lot of people. A wheelchair-accessible ramp that goes up 12 feet is going to add at least 100 feet more distance up and down - and still be painful for a lot of people with otherwise manageable foot/joint issues.

Pushing a stroller for the last few years, plus spraining my ankle a few weeks ago has given me a little taste of what trying to use sidewalks is like for people with even tighter mobility constraints, and this in an area that is relatively accessible without a car.
All “growth” in gdp seems to go to rich people. Normal people have seen stagnant wages and increased costs from the owners.

Why should I care if gdp isn’t increasing when I don’t see any gains whether it does or not?
Client_id is spoofable.

Redirect_uri helps with webapps that run on a standard web browser. However, if the client is not a web app (or, is running under a properly modified web browser), it can simply ignore the redirect.

Oauth2 does contemplate a client_secret field for client authentication. However, such a field is useless on public clients.

The oath2 spec is very explicit that client_id can not be used as a means of authenticating clients.
The thing that worries my about artificial sweeteners and specifically diet pop consumption is whether or not the constant exposure to artificial sweeteners causes your body to release an insulin response anyway and that then causing problems. If I had to guess we are going to get a big breakthrough study on diet pop that is going to link it to diabetes or something like that. I remain skeptical that there is a free lunch here.

No medical or scientific basis for this. I don’t really drink pop (once/year maybe?) with or without sugar or artificial sweeteners.

It doesn't, and you're misrepresenting its hauling capabilities. It cannot haul anywhere close to the range of an ICE vehicle. It's too expensive for the average person as well. There's not a used market etc.

> Trying to change the subject to Larry Sanger is an ad hominem fallacy. Address the content of the message, not the speaker.

I disagree. This thread started with "By cofounder Larry Sanger" - so the argument started with an implication that larry sangar should be listened to due to who he is. You can't both claim his argument holds extra weight due to who he is well also claiming its irrelavent who he is. You have to pick one.

As far as the obama article goes - im not an american and i havent heard of those scandals before, so honestly i dont know if their ommision is appropriate or not (it should be noted that libyan intervention is mentioned in his article).

However, i think this is asking the wrong question. Nothing is 100% neutral. I don't doubt you can find biased things in wikipedia. It is made by humans not revealed through divine revelation. The important question in my mind is how does it stack up against other sources. Is it mostly neutral relative to other information sources? That's how i would like to judge it.
I want ads to be hyper-personalized, because I want them to be relevant.

I don't, because ads are 10% informing me of the existence of products I might be interested in, and 90% psychological manipulation trying to induce me to buy stuff whether it's in my best interest or not. If the advertiser knows more about me, that can increase the effectiveness of their manipulation.

I say figure out that I'm a libertarian atheist with strong interests in open source software, bicycles, guns, and electronics test equipment, and show me ads for those things first and foremost. Target the hell out of me, please.

It seems like a win-win solution would be for browsers to send an optional user-controlled header describing your interests. Sort of like Google's topics API, but entirely under your control rather than mined from your browser history.
I spent the first decade of my career in that industry, working on the hardware and software inside parking meters. It gave me invaluable exposure to embedded devices, RTOS, electronics, mechanical design, UX, and wired/wireless networking. Everybody else I graduated with in college took tame gov't and enterprise jobs, which would have bored me to tears.
> But they still are bad pointing devices as a type of pointing device.

The Apple one is so good though, it convinced me to buy their dedicated desktop trackpad for when my laptop is docked and I work on my large monitor at the desk. It got to the point where I prefer their trackpad for literally everything I do on my desktop, with games being the only exception. Though I am still fine and good with using a mouse. Trackpads on windows laptops though, it feels insufferable in comparison.

Yes, I take some solace from the fact that most of the comments on the ticket are in the nature of:

- “Wait, I don’t think Team X can do this, it needs to be approved by Team Y and then handed to Team Z”, followed by

- “No there’s no policy not to do this”

- “Well maybe the policy was that we do do not this”

- “Does Team Z even get notified about tickets here?”

etc…
