Now that this has open the floodgates, where many users would be using a VPN like service shipped by default on the worlds most popular browser, one of two bad things will happen:

1. Cloudflare (which is proxying traffic for this feature) is unable to maintain its contact neutral status as governments force it to implement censorship to comply with local laws.

2. Governments force browsers to ship a block list of domains, with tampering the browser binaries being prevented by attestation (which has already been proposed in France.)
Feedback on my newsletter website design
Hello All,

I recently redesigned my newsletter hosted on beehive. I would love to hear your feedback and get some suggestions on how I can make it better.

Thanks,

People do it in parts of the world, generally referred to as 'subsistence farming' and not considered a desirable situation

I think it's really awesome for people to grow their own food but at the same time we need to have our eyes open - industrial ag is the backbone of our civilization, our way of life, and our freedom to do anything else with our time is dependent on it.

There are home gardeners out there who tout how much of their food they grow but curiously never seem to address that the bulk of their calories come from your industrial staple grains and starches.
It tell more than that.

Access to www.apple.com (with "www", so it is a browser)? Maybe I can push you an AD for iPhone 15 protective case.
That’s pretty cool. I’d never though about bogons and debogonizing before, it’s like chasing off all the squatters on your property and more keep coming. You need some fat pipes and beefy servers to be able to handle all the bogus traffic of machines trying to hit your server, and also be able to actually fulfill your purpose.

Make sense now why Cloudflare would be one of the only companies that could handle it!

While I have no doubt that "military" grade drones have different capabilities (autonomous, target detection, payload size, etc), the technology is already here today. You can buy toy drones for $10s of dollars. There are instances where consumer drones were used to drop bombs in Ukraine.

Yeah jackfruit, bananas/plantains, mangos, oranges, coconuts, a bunch of other local stuff basically just grows with almost no intervention.
I've seen CoC touted as a singular good destroy at least two communities by now, so you may not realize that your "social reformist" getup is your own personal obsession with your own personal politics, but it's plain to see for the rest of us
I have a long-term goal of doing similar. Specifically, I'd like to produce as much food as 2 people need, even though we won't actually try to survive off of it. If/when I do reach that point, I'll probably trade/sell/give away any excess, or send it back into the ground as compost.

I'll share my setup in case anyone wants a real life data point: I have about 2400 square feet of garden (in 4 plots), 19 fruit/nut trees, a small vineyard, blueberry/blackberry bushes, and various animals like chickens. I also grow indoors during the winter and have an herb garden. I think we'll accomplish this goal once the trees I've planted in the last 5 years start producing full loads, but we're probably at around 40% of needs currently. Technically, I could probably get much closer now if I hunted deer, since there's huge herds in the area and I'd qualify for a DNR crop damage permit (allowing me to take many additional deer over the limit and out of season), along with other animals. I have plenty of space for additional garden plots too, but don't really have any more bandwidth for it due to working full time as a software engineer.

Worth noting that while I have this goal, I'm not really min/maxing it either. I "waste" space/energy on flowers, gourds, luffas, and other nonedible things. Also, this is just a fun hobby, not really something too serious.
A friend of mine started a company based entirely on the premise that grind quality matters. They did many blind taste tests and found that they could taste a 50μm difference in grind size when they controlled the other variables. Can you tell the difference between a $50 spice mill and a $200 burr grinder? Yes, absolutely. Can you tell the difference between that and a $1,500 expresso grinder, probably.

His little startup company ended up getting bought by one of the large coffee companies.

>Traffic will be directed to use these proxies based on a third party list of domains.

this is the interesting bit to me. what is the third-party list of domains? is google going to start masking IPs for traffic to some known-sketchy list of sites?
I've been a big fan of wayland until a few months ago when I tried to put my friend on KDE with a nvidia card. It was still completely unusable as a daily driver.
But then mark and sweep also doesn’t have to free the memory (it just does a bulk sweep occasionally), and RC languages do need to free memory used to hold the values later (they have to run expensive compaction and locking steps). So definitely more a Java problem with poor allocation hoisting and reuse than a difference between the RC and mark and sweep implementations of GC.

> Most traffic nowadays is encrypted so all you get is the domain.

That can be still quite interesting for advertisers, and if you think about home ISPs rather than public Wi-Fi networks, you could easily imagine your ISP also supplying your demographic range and rough location to advertisers.

Even from purely public IP geolocation information alone, I'm able to pinpoint my IPv4 and IPv6 to my ZIP code (which spans only a couple of blocks). IPv6 allows tracking individual devices on a network persistently as well, i.e. distinguishing between people in a household.
Average electricity costs in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim locality[1] have increased +46.6% since 2019 (+10% nominal CAGR?! wild) and is currently +65.7% above the national average.

Given this prevailing trend, I do wonder what percentage of projected lifecycle opex is attributable to fuel, and whether any savings will be realized in the end.

So you think that you know a lot about security but not only do you not know the difference between SIEM and SOAR you think that most security jobs aren’t dealing with incidents? Fascinating.

It’s not an uncommon problem though I guess, I’ve worked with a lot of people who think they’re doing novel work discovering that you can use regex to find spam or inventing a DGA detector.

Canadian retailer profits have been off the charts, fwiw. Inflation has been quite brutal and merciless in Canada, with retail chain owners fat extra paychecks in the tens or hundreds of millions.
in the last two weeks I've been using Fedora Workstation, I haven't use Linux in 20 years and i have to say this is an incredibly improved experience.

I haven't yet needed to boot back into windows! If it stays like that for the next 6 months I'll cut over to Linux permanently and wipe the windows partition.
It is generally good that carbon emission has jumped to the forefront of environmental decision-making. But it seems like a lot of people now only view these decisions within that context and have lost sight of all the other concerns when it comes to pollution.

Not every environmental policy is about stopping the planet from warming. Sometimes it is about stopping our kids from breathing exhaust and waters from getting filled with microplastic.
OHAI seems to be related to Oblivious HTTP.

To be honest, I still don't understand the use case for that when there's already MASQUE, which seems like a more flexible and elegant solution to the same or at least a very similar problem.

Do you know what OHAI does in detail and what its advantages over MASQUE would be?
>Respect should be earned.

Respect regarding your work, sure. But basic respect for other people is a basic thing that shouldn't have to be "earned."

this is underselling it a bit -- armed COTS drones are being fielded by the thousands, by both sides
One look at the dirty dancing on TikTok and I can understand parents concern for what their kids consume.
Employing too many people in jobs that aren't productive is bad. Given the allegedly high skill of many of these people, it's much better for them to be reallocated to more productive, more valuable roles.

Twitter was a failing company. Cursing them with too many employees isn't good for anyone.
Exactly, if this is for survival you'll need fencing to keep small animals out, and possibly something like a pellet gun to remove pests like squirrels from existence.

Then you have the effort of preserving all the food. The modern house isn't a great place to store potatoes. You'll probably want to can/jar most of it. I mean you could freeze it, but in a survival situation you probably don't have reliable power. Oh, and like you said with a dry spell, where are you storing enough water for the dry season? We just got over a 60 day spell with no rain. Wouldn't want to try and survive here.
You can say the same thing about high speed trains now. The difference is, a well set up automated system is probably the best odds a kid is going to get at survival because if all the cars are networked they will know ahead of time there is someone rapidly braking ahead of them.
After the recent 20 year shit show and its cost what is "amazing" is how such people actual believe they are credible. The I flew F22s and its amazing and therefore I am amazing is what is supposed to give them credibility. But it all doesnt matter. High interest rates will set the course of this story.
Wouldn't governments inclined to do 1. already exert the same pressure on local ISPs?

The roles of the "proxy exit node" network and regional ISPs seem very similar, at least.

And couldn't 2. happen completely independently of this effort? Or is your point that this type of proxying would circumvent existing ISP-level blocking without 1.?
Something that seems to be missed in the comments is that this is not being pitched as a general purpose VPN for routing all your traffic (or even all your Chrome traffic) through. In particular:

> Traffic will be directed to use these proxies based on a third party list of domains.

Given the feature is another of the attempts at reducing cross-site tracking surface, it seems like a good guess that what the idea is to apply this specifically for domains used for that.
> There are many incidents paper money laced with fentanyl where you touch it, you get fentanyl overdose.

This is a myth perpetuated by cops having panic attacks.

You can dip your hand in liquid fentanyl and be fine. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35722948/

"This has never happened," said Dr. Ryan Marino, a toxicologist and emergency room physician who studies addiction at Case Western Reserve University. "There has never been an overdose through skin contact or accidentally inhaling fentanyl." https://www.npr.org/2023/05/16/1175726650/fentanyl-police-ov...
The US Government felt that 160 acres was the right size to sustain a family, and so that is the size allocated to a family in the Homestead Act. On a side note, individuals in their own gardens cannot even remotely approach the efficiency of modern farms, so going back that direction would be counter-productive and terrible for the environment.
I have never seen such abhorrent things as you've described, and it is meaningfully better in my experience.
You should see the things available on muggle internet, it's horrifying!

You seem capable of looking up the definition of "survival" on your own. Anyway, this discussion is not worth having on this oppressive site, because any controversial opinion is just flagged and censored by the majority of fragile-ego dimwits.
> Fast forward a couple of decades and everyone needs 10 IPs each. You have your phone, your laptop, your work computer, your TV, your door lock, your door bell camera, your thermostat, etc.

I miss FoxPro; I learned it while studying CS and created applications that could empower mom-and-pop stores. It could manage their inventory, handle invoicing, and generate basic sales reports for them.
FoxPro was simple yet remarkably powerful.

The one aspect that godot lacks currently is the store and marketplace ecosystem.

But perhaps the existing unity ecosystem sellers will look towards porting their stuff over, since their customers are in mass exodus mode.

Godot needs to prepare a good marketplace solution to accept the oncoming ecosystem developers, so that they can take advantage of this. Could even have a potential to use revenue from the marketplace to fund godot development!
It's not a texture cache, it's 4KB of texture memory that needs to be manually babysat both in an emulator and hardware.
The cursor responsiveness patch is massive. Now, if the compositor lags, you won't notice it as much -- granted, I could easily get it to lag last time I used it. Opening any sort of app (even Kitty) took 3-4s and seemed to really bog the system down -- still haven't got to the bottom of that one.
OMG!

"In order to access the proxy a user must be logged in to Chrome. To prevent abuse a Google run authentication server will grant access tokens to the Google run proxy based on a per-user quota."

In order to prevent abuse... we have to give you a tracking token, to use the "Anonymizing" network. One that tracks down to the browser level, across IP switches! Way cool!

Nice try Google... we've seen tracking tokens from you enough times. :)
> And nothing built in to the manual really explained enough to do much besides some basic stuff involving printing characters to the screen, and some keyboard input. If the manual had any kind of tutorial sufficient to make snake or even just a really bad version of asteroids or galaga or something I'd probably have never put down the keyboard. But instead, I kind of lost interest because I assumed I was missing something you needed to make graphical programs.

This sounds a lot like myself as a kid in the around 1999/2000 after getting my parents' Performa tower as a hand-me-down.

I'd become aware that it was possible to build one's own programs, but exactly how was extremely murky. I grabbed various development tools mentioned on the internet, but as you note tutorials were nonexistent and IDEs, consoles, etc may as well have been ancient tablets written in an archaic language.

Finally I stumbled across REALBasic, I think maybe on a MacAddict shareware/demo disc, which was analogous to Visual Basic in the Windows world (though unlike VB, RB could compile binaries for both platforms). That was far more intuitive… just drag a button onto your window-canvas and double-click the button to edit its code. Examples were also much more common and easy to find on the internet and so before too long I was hitting the ceiling of what was possible in RB.

That segued nicely into Cocoa development when OS X rolled around, which brought Project Builder and similar (but far more extensive) WYSIWYG UI builder with Interface Builder. That took a lot longer to become capable with, but led me to where I am today as a mobile dev.
Corn has ears.
Yes, there's nothing special about the kernel upgrade. You either reboot or kexec.

This is great. I often look at unit tests to understand how to use legacy code. Seeing a law come with concrete examples that are part of the legal text, would allow us to test if a rule is logically consistent, and test our understanding as well. Sort of how you want to convince your reviewer that your code works by proving it with a unit/integration/e2e test.

End to end tests for legal frameworks?
Sometimes the detected differences are manual changes (“drift”) that shouldn’t have happened, and terraform will offer to reverse them.
"The Secret Life of Plants" is a great book on this subject.
I think this might be a difficult thing to get data on, as I don't think most companies would want to release this info. But I would say in my experience that the more senior the role and the more experience someone has (the author had VP-level experience) it is absolutely the case that you lean on referral networks. Even at the very senior level where people are hired through executive search firms, a big reason those firms exist is to ensure confidentiality throughout the process, but most of the names they come up with aren't usually unknown to the hiring company.

Also, it's important to understand that it doesn't need to be direct referrals (i.e. someone at the company saying "We should hire Bob X for this job"). Oftentimes it's things as simple as LinkedIn posts sharing job openings with your network, and then when that's passed around have someone reach out through a mutual contact.
I believe that Mesa has just recently added support.
Only within one calendar year. In your original AAPL / MSFT example, you’d need to pay taxes at the end of the year on any gains from your AAPL sale assuming that’s as your only trading activity in the year.

Sustainable food is steady work but not all time consuming.

Potatoes alone take 60 to 90 days to grow (weather and varieties) and 'only' take up two to three days of full work (at most) per bed per crop (split the above into (say) three or four rotating beds).

The work is to turn and fork grown potatoes out, and prepping | weeding soil at same time, and then (same time) working new potato cuttings with eyes back in - then cleaning and storing - as potatoes are consumed bits that have budding eyes can be cut out and set aside for planting next time.

If you've got a spare back acre you can pretty much swap gym time for garden time and stay active, healthy, and mostly eat food you grow yourself (location dependant).
Amazing work! My engineering side wonders if this could be added to an automated system which would automatically notify site operators if their equipment was leaking -- this would presumably require a database which detailed which company "managed" a certain set of coordinates.
For the most part, gpus are no longer used for hashing. Once ETH switched to PoS, it decimated the entire GPU mining market.

Neither one is as accessible imo, fedora has long history of distro making and it shows
LA has famously bad smog because of its geography. It sits in a bowl surrounded by mountains. California passed a lot of emissions restrictions because LA was becoming unlivable in the 1970s. (We all benefit from those, because carmakers sold the same cars elsewhere. The California Air Resources Board wields a lot of power in setting national policy.)

So while it would be best to stop burning fossil fuels entirely, we benefit if LA paves the way on electric buses. If they have to defer to cost by selling old stock to those who wouldn't be buying electric anyway, it's still a net win. And slightly better if the other pollution they still make doesn't produce the same concentration it does in Los Angeles.
Are you being purposefully obtuse? Even Musk himself responded to the allegations of more nazi stuff on twitter, and by threatening to sue the ADL for reporting on it and bringing it to the attention of advertisers...

As to the CP, didn't musk let go of the team handling that? Twitter is a huge online platform, obviously CP being on it isn't new, so I don't think you are giving me a fair reading by pointing this out. I'm referring to an increase in it. obviously, we both know this. I don't know what you look for on twitter that would lead you to your conclusion, you can explain that on your own. from the reporting I've seen (I don't go looking for porn on twitter, let alone CP), there is an increase, and in some cases it even is tolerated by twitter management: https://www.forbes.com/sites/conormurray/2023/07/27/twitter-...

just going to /r/twitter on reddit will give you tons of threads about there being more CP on twitter, so I'm not really "seeing it" your way.

edit: and for what it's worth, I've used instagram for over 10 years and I've NEVER seen CP on it
