$365 does seem pretty steep.

But budget options pretty much demand a variety of skills.

DIY boards require soldering, and flashing firmware to the microcontrollers. If a mistake is made when soldering, this can be very difficult to diagnose, and harder to fix. -- Paying someone else to solder is sometimes an option, but can be expensive, too.

Even with cheap boards from e.g. AliExpress, you still might have to be familiar with flashing firmware.

For someone with more time than money, DIY is a good option.

With ZSA, I feel I can at least recommend a reputable brand; I'm not sure I can recommend DIY assembly to most people.
> Vegan meats are clearly labeled; usually in their own section of the grocery store.

Not so at many stores and with many brands. Trader joes has tricked me two or three times, now I know to read all product packages carefully. [This is the point where you insult me for shopping while groggy and not paying close enough attention!]

If these food producers aren't being deceptive, then the law won't effect them or their bottom line. But of course they are, so it will.
Doesn't surprise me that Inter is number one. It is just so good. Every time I try out something else, it feels like a subtle downgrade.
Forward Pass: On the Security Implications of Email Forwarding Mechanism Policy
If I say I represent such a group, then; is it likely that anyone will disagree? DMCA cases seem to be about who has the scarier looking letterhead anyway.

To whom would I have to prove or disprove my standing to take Rockstar games down, I wonder? Does Steam have any right to refuse such a request just because it's patently absurd?
The general rule in tort is that you need physical injury or physical destruction of property to sustain a lawsuit. There's exceptions at the edges of that, but you basically can't sue a device manufacturer for crummy security that caused you to lose money or other non-physical damages like reputational harm. The same limitation does not apply to contract law. We think that a cybersecurity label could be enforceable under contract law, as well as help bolster claims that a duty was breached in tort (when there is physical injury/damage). It would also be subject to FCC enforcement, for failing to live up to the commitments made to get the label.

gustavus made a remark about internet commenters, not vegan food companies, and I responded to that with a remark about internet commenters, not vegan food companies. Obviously the companies are in it for profit, who said otherwise?

I'll reiterate my point since you missed it by a mile the first time: Ethical vegan internet commenters defend deceptive branding in this context but not others because they think tricking meat eaters into eating vegan food is an end that justifies the means.
I didn't feel old today until I jumped on HN and saw someone who didn't know what 'cracked' means in the context of PC games.
This is an honest question to these arguments, but as a consumer (and as an extension the FCC protecting them) why should I care? Would you accept the same arguments from your car manufacturer, "sorry we can't fix your broken brakes, our supplier uses a process that isn't supported by new brake standards so just don't brake"?

I suspect not, so why not because the car is more expensive?

I would argue that the purpose of regulation is exactly to root out this sort of practice. If it was cheap and effortless to do this we likely wouldn't need regulation.
In the UK staff is used much the way “team” or “employees” are used in the US. It’s a collective noun.

“Staff must park behind the building”.
Not in the winter. 50 can get closed for days, 80 is always plowed.

Closest in terms of average time throughout the year.
I’ve heard “on crack” used similarly to “on steroids,” as an American English speaker.

For example, it would not be out of the question to say something like “when the iPhone launched it was amazing. Like a palm pilot on crack.”

So, when used positively, “on crack” is generally a modifier(in my experience). When used alone it does seem to have negative connotations.
It does work, I use it regularly. However, it can hang the whole system in certain cases such as mount that went wrong, connection timeout between the servers (without -o reconect option on sshfs, but even with that sometimes).
my favorite use was for software that required a USB dongle. if you lost the dongle, you lost access to the software. there is not "back up" option. so the cracking community came up with a way to emulate those dongles. the obvious abuse followed. we used the software for legit 1:1 installs to physical dongle on blade servers where all of the dongles could not be installed

You need that in the sense that it would be a legitimate notice.

My wife didn't like the taste of meat even before she was a vegan, so probably
I think the vegan stuff is taking the brunt of what the industry has done to other traditional ingredients. Replacing sugar with Sucralose or HFCS (it's hidden and not made clear). Replacing butter with palm oil. Randomly adding MSG and preservatives where they can get away with it.

I am not some sort of traditionalist but the food industry hasn't regulated itself on things that deeply annoy consumers (given how retail shelf stocking works, consumers aren't the ones buying from food producers directly - it's the megastores). Absent shaking up retail business model, we need regulation so consumers' needs are represented.
As someone who takes a decent amount of monochrome photos, I don't think the extra resolution and brightness is worth it.

The advantage of taking color photos and converting them to black and white in post is that you have full control over the resulting brightness of different colors during the monochrome conversion.

For example, in the photo of the deer here, you could make the deer pop more by turning down greens and turning red up.

Starting from a color photo just gives you so much more control over the relative values of different parts of the image. And with monochrome, obviously, value is everything.
Haha, that's nice, thank you for this!

I don't have children yet, but I expect to in the coming years. I wish to instill a love of reading in them, but I worry about how to go about doing so.

I spent so much time reading as a child that I'd get grounded from it, forbidden from reading at the dinner table, that sort of thing. But that love came partially from a lack of alternatives; we only had local TV channels and no video games or other comparable distractions.

I worry how, to a child, a book can be as effective a lure as a screen when I, as an adult, often find myself taken by the latter.
Ask HN: Are you still using Heroku?

Even if the crack was included it wouldn't apply.
I think if you _don't_ sell helium to non-recycling facilities in the near term, MRIs would stop altogether. The two articles about recycling that you shared are both research universities who considered it a PR-worthy accomplishment to put recycling in place to cover _some_ of their machines, which for the moment sound like they're almost entirely about NMR; the UCSF article even says that after paying $500k, they're still hoping to "inspire" other uses than NMR within the same university to begin recycling, i.e. the top-flight research university bragging about recycling still isn't able to do it for clinical MRI machines.

Do you know (or perhaps someone else can chime in) -- is it even feasible currently for a medical facility with 1-2 MRI machines to put a recycling system into place? Or is the recycling system of a size and complexity that only if you have a helium footprint above a given size is it realistic? Certainly, most places would not have the expertise on staff to design and implement such a system today.

Worse, if recycling were a requirement to purchase helium, how do we estimate which medical facilities would _not_ buy an MRI machine because of the higher initial cost of the recycling system, or maintenance of its collection, compression, or purification components? How would that change patient outcomes (especially given that the initial complain about MRIs in this thread was long waits due to limited capacity)?
It's a pun on the DNS filtering software pi-hole.

As nerdy as HN is it's safe to assume this is on the front page because the name sounds funny not because the majority are secretly spending years of their lives going deep into things like molecular studies posted in Nature.
Of course not. But they don't operated based on evidence, they do based on fear. Like Apple, John Deere and pretty much any industry today.

They are not entitled to anything. Rockstar can use their crack as much as they want.
Consider a company that needs a programming job done. It’s maybe a one-off, perhaps a 3 month to 3 year project. The company is not in tech and has no programmers.

Now, in this scenario they could hire a programmer at say, 100-200k, for the sake of argument. But this person might want to stay on for years, want benefits, and would need a manager. The company has no management experience in programming, so they know they’ll either do a shoddy job managing or have to hire a manager. This thing is already spiralling!

So now a consultant comes along. This person is an expert and has a track record. They are self-starting and self-managing. They can be brought on to get the job done and then they go away.

You can see that hiring such a consultant is not only far easier, faster, and likely to result in high quality, but very likely cheaper.

Moonform has a nice ring to it.
Sorry to hear that. The comment below does give good advice, presuming you're not an actual goblin and that you're somewhere around average height, you can put odds in your favor by staying fit, well dressed and well groomed. Lack of hair, get hair implants, etc. Get braces or dental work if needed.

The result is superficial but the confidence gains will be real and you'll feel better either way.

After that I would advise signing up to a rock climbing gym or something and getting out to meet girls in real life, in case your dating app profile still doesn't help by then.

I think most of all, let go of your hate towards yourself/your parents/your appearance. This kind of bitterness consumes you after a while and it will show in your personality.
...which starts at $399, so it's a preference at that point...
This is what civil courts are for. Otherwise let the market determine which manufacturers or products are reliable. This is nonsesne.
tab-bar and project.el are fantastic. Projectile of course gives you a load more functionality, but I prefer to use out of the box options when I can. The risk is always pulling in too much and then nuking performance with bloat, or not applying fancy packages consistently (hydra for some things, not for others, for example).

My config is pretty threadbare these days, which is a relief when I plan to rewrite it in literate format.
I think this whole process has been beautiful. Hashicorp was well aware that licenses are tagged to versions of projects rather than the "project" itself, and used that to its advantage as a business to start maximizing profits to its enterprise offerings.

The community was well aware that once you tag a license to a version, you can't undo that. And they're well aware that they can fork from that license forwards and build their own "new" project, version by version, that stays open source.

This is going to be fascinating to see play out, and I think a case study in software licensing going forwards...can't wait to see how OpenTF does down the road.
There's a subtle distinction. "Like ... on crack/steroids" means a really good / fast version of something (I think steroids is probably the more common variation) e.g. "an e-bike is like a bicycle on crack". "They're on crack" means "They are crazy".
We have worked very hard in the OpenWrt and Linux projects to make it easy to update them in the field. Linux distros, android, apple, openwrt, etc have this facility built in now. IoT should also.

"The biggest issue with hourly billing is that neither of us knows how much the contract is worth until afterwards."
You still don't with daily billing.
The fact that everything americans buy is built off of oppression is not an acceptable argument that we should ignore such oppression.

It's just entitlement that you should be free to buy such products made with literal slave labor with no moral qualms. We should call it the Nestle argument, that caring about slave labor would be very inconvenient, so we shouldn't.

Instead, you should probably petition the FTC to not allow a company profiting from slave labor to buy up all it's competition.

That doesn’t strike me as a neutral statement! What does “conservatives” mean in this context? Always reminds me of this tweet:

Me: Holy shit! You were censored for wanting lower taxes?

Con: LOL no...no not those views

Me: So....deregulation?

Con: Haha no not those views either

Me: Which views, exactly?

Con: Oh, you know the ones

This may be beyond the FCC's purview, but given some of the comments (e.g., https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37393644) perhaps an entirely different strategy is warranted.

Instead of trying to compel manufacturers, who may no longer even exist, to support their old products; perhaps the government should focus on protecting consumers and aftermarket vendors who update / modify / reverse-engineer older revisions--especially after they're no longer meaningfully supported by the manufacturer.

My attorney friend has explained to me that SLAPP is very hard to get, even when it is obvious, but especially when experts are involved. It's the civil equivalent of malicious prosecution, which is also notoriously difficult to get. Judges have a lot of sympathy for the attorneys that are in their courts everyday.
A few questions:

- Some of us are loath to promote macOS, and that includes using it in decorational elements. Any chance that you'll add other window decoration styles?

- There's not a lot of languages listed; I wasn't able to find D (which didn't surprise me) or C++ (which did surprise me). I don't know what you're using now for syntax highlighting, but something like prismjs.com could easily add dozens of languages to your supported list.

I do like the looks of this project; keep it up!

I was referring to general-purpose filesystems in common use today. Yes, there are a lot of special-purpose and experimental filesystems which are optimized for certain use cases, and a competent systems programmer could write one optimized specifically for small files, but these all have to make significant trade-offs.

MacFUSE always seems unbearably slow to me. Specially in the Finder. Has it improved?

FUSE-T seems more future proof (no kext) and probably less likely to completely hang your Mac, but could potentially be even slower since it’s another abstraction layer in between.

It’s odd that there aren’t any great open source SFTP solutions for the Mac. CyberDuck and FileZilla are barely passable.
> Saying he's facing execution is a lie.

So you're trusting a country that still has the death penalty on the books, regularly uses it even on cases where the legality / quality of evidence is all but non-existent and that still has Guantanamo open to keep their word and only charge him for what they announced they'd want him extradited for?

I mean, yes, the USA ain't Russia or China, but if I were facing potential 170 years in prison? Fuck no, no way I'd risk that.

Did Rockstart have to license Razor1911's cracking software?

It would be ironic if Rockstar was in violation of Razor1911's copyright.
It seems to me that a law based on technical specifications is going to be hard to define and harder still to enforce. Perhaps, it may be easier to employ market forces to incentivize the manufacturers to secure (and continue to secure) their devices.

For instance, can there be a remediation fund that manufacturers pay into to compensate/support users for privacy or security breaches involving their devices. The amount they pay would be based on the number of the devices involved and the severity of the issue (PII, loss of amenity, network nuisance, etc). The rate paid could also be reviewed periodically to ensure the amount is not too low or too high. This way, companies can put a literal price on security and factor it into their product strategy and planning.

The advantage of this approach is two-fold. It internalizes the cost of security so it is no longer an externality that is be foisted on consumers. It also allows companies to apply their innovation towards addressing the issue without hamstringing them into a regulation prescribed approach that may become outdated over time.

Also, helium tends to escape the atmosphere into space! Air is just a ton of colliding molecules, and something like helium has an atomic mass of ~4, compared to say nitrogen, which has an atomic mass of ~14, and it is in the N2 form, so it has a mass of ~18. So, an N2 molecule is way more massive than a helium atom. As a result, helium at the same temperature as nitrogen has a much higher average velocity and can escape the earth's gravity at a high rate.
Very accurate. Think also about something you use daily but don't care much about. Maybe you have a "point A to B" car that just needs decent MPG. Car equivalent to Windows is a sagging Altima or a screeching Mirage.
>I've purchased equipment, new in the box, after the mfg had discontinued support.

Exactly the kind of thing that sounds crazy but still happens.

>1. Final date the manufacturer will provide firmware updates & security updates 2. If the manufacturer will support open source alternative firmware & security updates. 3. If there are any subscription fees (and how much) to get firmware updates & security updates.

It would be great if you could file an official comment with your thoughts on exactly what disclosures are needed and why you think they're necessary. We want to get this right.
Agreed. I fully expect to see the routers we used in the cerowrt project from 2008 still operational for 10-20 more years. Thereś one out there with 4+ years of uptime that I know of.

It would be permissible, if the "software for the express purpose of bypassing the protections they themselves placed on their software" was their own software.

It's not permissible for them to make available other people's "software for the express purpose of bypassing the protections they themselves placed on their software" without the express permission of those other people.

Neither statute nor case law sets a lower limit on the size of software that is protected by copyright... but if there were a lower limit, then it is clearly down towards the hundreds (or even dozens) of bytes. The crack certainly doesn't sit underneath that lower limit.

It'd be like purloining just one source code file, including it in your commercial software and relying on the defense "hey, it was only a few hundred lines long".
Hmm I don't know the food quality area super well but I am sure it's hard to confirm improvements were caused by regulations and not technology, right?

The idea of transparency is interesting to me. I used to agree with you that more is better but I no longer feel that way. Prop 65 in California is one example where there are stickers saying 'this might give you cancer' basically everywhere and we all ignore them so often that we start worrying about cancer less. It's not a good thing.

Imo existing laws regarding misleading marketing and accuracy are probably all that we need (perhaps increased enforcement) for something like iot security updates.
